Blessing to your family, I am sad to hear about cousin Jo. I am the youngest child of Lylla Farrelly Schafer. Sadly Uncle Roy passed away this morning, Nov. 6th. I hope that they are all gathered together hugging, laughing and talking of old times.

I saw the video of JoAnn Park, what a wonderful thing! I'm JoAnn's cousin and we spent a lot of time together. I will always remember her. My father Lyall was JoAnn's uncle. I'm not able to come to the funeral. May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief. Love Lylla Farrelly Schafer and family
