    Sheila, Ron and families -- I was sadden when I heard about Lil. She has always been good to me, but especially after Dorothy died. She always seemed busy, taking care of family and home. She certainly earned some peace. But she's probably rounded up other family members for a game of Tripoly or Greek Rum. Love and good thoughts, Linda
