Linda and I will remember her fondly as "Aunt Chicken". I don't know how old we were before we realized she had a true given name. We saw her in the summertime when we visited from Illinois when we were in grade school. We once had a picnic along the river by their house in Adrian in later years. I was glad to see her at the last Kramer reunion in Jamestown at the park. "Memory is the treasury and guardian of all things" Marcus Tullius Cicero. Our prayers to other family and friends.
