Jenny & Cheryl and Families: We are saddened to learn of Auntie Joan's passing and recent health struggles. We trust that fond memories will ease your sorrow, especially as stories and photos are shared and treasured by all in your families. Only Ann remains and she'll be 82 in November. Sorry we couldn't attend the visitation, as we had out-of-town guests here for a memorial reception and dinner for a family friend in northwest suburbs; then, get back to Midway Airport on time...
