Fran was my dad's first cousin. I am George Stroyls's son, and live in New York. His mother was, I believe, Mr. Sultie's sister. I have a lot of childhood memories of Fran at home on her mom's farm in Eldersville. I still pass by the old property when I visit my aunts in Weirton, Mary and Mildred Vojnovich. The last time I saw Fran was at her husband's medical office on Main Street in Weirton, when I was in grade school. Now I'm 57. The Sultie's were always a wonderful family, and my dad's favorite relatives. She and her sisters were such a pleasure to see. To all of you, my sincere sorrow at her passing. Tom
