Barb,
So sad to read about your mother’s passing. I’m one person who will always be able to form a clear image of Ona in my mind. I particularly remember the Boston trip (Larry Bird opener) and your McCaskey ceremony. I would invite you to call or visit me if you’re in need of some conversation.
Thinking of you,
Ken Saupp
