Jean, Charles and Family

We are so sorry to hear of Mary's death.  Although we haven't seen her for several years, we always felt very close to her.  We were in contact for many years while teaching in Ohio.  Although we only met the sons while they were very young, we know Mary and Ted were very proud of them.  Prosperity is still special to us.  We purchased Mom's property from Billy and Marion after her death in 2004.  Wanda died in 2002.  Special condolences to all of you.   Tom and Lillian Foti
