Wanda,
Thanks for the obituary. I knew this woman and her husband fits into my
Cosby family somewhere. I will figure that out later.
I have been meaning to write to you again, but have been busy with my own
family crisis. My great aunt and uncle have been very ill and he is in the
hospital in critical condition. Neither of them are able to be left alone
and there is only mom and I to do what has to be done. We have hired
sitters to help but that cannot go on for very much longer due to
finacnces.
I hope that your family is getting better. I still remember all of you in
my prayers. Take care and thanks again for the obit.
Linda
