Linda, Larry , Carol and David, please know that Susan, Hyland and I send our love and sympathy to you and yours. We are better for having loved and known Aunt Jesn and the entire Powers family. Sadly, your pretty Mom is the last of a wonderful family! The demise of a loved one makes each less than one was before. I'm so blessed to have been named after "Mom" Powers and Aunt Jean. As cousins, we all grew up with great close loving folks. Thinking of you with much love,Nora Sue
