"Thanks so much for being in touch! Dad LOVED Kathryn dearly. She always sent us birthday cards with chewing gum taped on the inside of them. A great treat in the 1960's! Roe was a great man and good neighbor. Your family was in some of the photos we had at the church. The Spahr and Yale families were great friends. God bless, Tim"
