I have wonderful memories of travelling from Oregon to visit Uncle IB and Aunt Helen when I was seven years old, and several other times over the years. The hospitality, the food, and the breath-taking drives around Chicago with Uncle IB were outstanding. He was so tall and so strong - a great man. Our hearts go out to Aunt Helen and our cousins.
