back in the early " '50's " the Ford's had the creamry just up the alley from us and lived just up the block. This was in Severy. Leslie was in my class, I believe Evelyn was the oldest and there was another girl, I believe. that has been just too many years ago. So sorry for Evelyn's loss and sympathies to all the Ford family.
Flo,
Is Jo Ann the name you are trying to remember ?
