I offer my condolences in the loss of Carolyn. She was a very sweet lady. I worked with her as a volunteer at Candler for a couple of years before I moved away. It was always such a pleasure being around her.

Dear Penny and Taffy, So sorry to read the obituary of your mother's death. As you know, we were cousins - our fathers (Johnny and Franklin) were half brothers. Due to being handicapped I will not be able to attend your mother's services. Your good memories will sustain you. With love, Frances Hohenstein
