Bob and Josie were our dear friends and neighbors over 50 years agos. I have such fond memories, the piano bar where Bob played. Tim and Mike and my children playing. Josie was a true friend in every sence of the word. (Tim if you can remember Linda, Richard and Marilynn Winkler.) Please tell David and Joe that Sally (Hammond) sends love, prayers and sweet memories.
