Hi Folks,
Glad to hear all is OK. John is up here for the celebration. Lots going on. Tell Ma to enjoy her visits and not worry about us here. Mill is closed for a week. John spends his days with Nes and Lloyd. Yesterday John and Lloyd went to see old friends. Saturday night we went to the class banquet and the clubhouse later. What a time! Still feel the effects of it. Met many classmates and talked old times. At 10 AM this forenoon, parade, ball games & boat racing all day. Something for everyone!
All our love to all & write again soon. Cyl
