Mary and I were very saddened to hear of the loss of your Mom. I always enjoyed the time I spent at your home with Dolores and John at The St. Patricia Quarterly Meetings back in the 1970's. It was a fun time. Dolores always had a positive attitude and a winning smile. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. I will never forget what I learned from the time I spent with the Lehrs. God Bless you all. Sincerely, Jim and Mary
