Hello all
I just learned that Sandra McLellan's grandfather died.
He lived in Ponchatoula and she will be coming down for the
funeral which will be Tuesday. She wants as many as can
make it to come to Hammond and all get together for lunch
on Wed. She will be staying at the Holiday Inn there and
since she probably won't have a car, we can meet there around
11 am and have the noon buffet there OR walk across the street
to Don's Seafood. This is kinda short notice, I know, but
do try to come if you can. I'm sure this would mean lots to
Sandy.
She won't be leaving MA until tomorrow.
Thanks to Don Johnson for sending this obit.
I know all of us send Sandy our sympathy and will keep her
in our prayers as she travels tomorrow and attends the funeral on
Tuesday.
