Lynne, Michael, Patricia...I will try and be at the memorial service next Saturday. You all are a memorable, happy part of my life always. Where has the time gone? I know that life has many things we don't understand, but I know that Lola and Johnny Dunne had three wonderful children who I shared MANY happy, funny memories with...I'm sorry for your loss...now and then, but what a loving family you are. I hope to see you Saturday. If not, please know that I think of you all the time. Remember when we used to play "Nun"...pinned the towel on our heads? Also, hope Lola is well. I know she is still as pretty as ever. Always, Nancy Johnson
