  8. Rene’ I do not get the newspaper, do occasionally check on line. I was needless to say shocked by Johnee’s passing. I loved her dearly and always thought so highly of her. I regret that we have not kept in touch since my sister passed. I loved visiting with her and with you. I know she is with her soul mate Frank and they are celebrating her arrival in a grand fashion. I will always remember her with love in my heart. If you need anything…. please call me. My love and prayers to you and your family
