Dearest Stella, though I never had much contact with you, Gail and Carl after I moved away from Chesterfield all those years ago; you and your family were often in my mind, and considered still a part of our family after you and Derek divorced. May you rest in peace and God bless your family. I would love to hear from Gail and Carl.
