    Waneta I wanted to come take you to the Centropolis noodle dinner and called the rehab to be sure you were there, but I wasn’t able to attend after all. What a wonderful reunion you are having with your parents and mine. All the joyous lunches you and my mom and me had together ! Too many to count. And we never ran out of things to say. May God hold you in His loving arms.
