I am sorry I got your name mixed up with Simpson's. I was just so
thrilled to get your letters.
I got an email from Linda Crocket York with more memories.
I am sorry about your aunt. Do they live in Walton now?
Years ago we spent the afternoon at Don and Mary Lou's in Florida. They
had gobs of sea shells. I don't know if I knew about Don but I did know
about Richard. Two of their sons had cystic fibrosis. Mikie lived about 6
months but the other one lived until in his 30's. We always though that's
what took Richard so early, just the stress and strain of the boys
illness. They moved into Oh as IN wouldn't help with meds as Richard made
too much, if I remember right. They have another son and daughter who are
fine. I think both Richard and Lucille had the CF gen in their bodies
which passed it on to the boys. This was so sad.
Guess Mary Lou is still in Florida. The Shanks were a wonder ful family!
