Dave, Carol, Cara, and Jeffery (spelled 'correctly') we read of your father's and grandfather's death. We know it is a sad time for you. Francis Jenkins taught me what a fine teacher he was. Do you still have "after Math Acres?"

Don, Barb, Rick, Will, and Anna, you are in our thoughts always. Memories, what your Grandpa (or Dad) would say to you, or think of his hand in yours, is the best way to help you through this now. You are a great family.

Love Mark, Diane and family.

I want to express my sympathy to Carl's family at this sad time. Carl was a great friend when I lived at The Inn, as was Rogene.
We will miss them both.
Sincerely, Katharine Neuhaus
