To my dear Henrietta and the family. I am so sorry of your loss. You were like my sister and brother. The bear rug on the floor of Minnie's bed room --I was always so proud of it--yet afraid---LOL. His dog "drum"--then there was "laddie". Oh, the wonderful memories.The big brick house was always like "home" to me. When I get to KS each year I have to drive by it. Usually go to the restaurant in Iola for breakfast at least one day --just to see Loraine. So often I think of all of you--Minnie, Nannie, Jack Tacket (even the mean rooster). I love you all so much.Mary Compton Shields
