I remember that fl&~3Ce8 came to visit Eleanor

and tney came to church with her occasionally.
I thought they came from either Racine or Kenosha
Wisconsin, but no one living in our community
can remember where they came from,
I don’t know if this is of any help to you, but
it gave me a chance to recall many fine memories that
I have of Eleanor, oincerely,
