Frank,

Henry (Gene or Blackie) was a year ahead of me.  Was there not a younger sister named Kathy?  Believe she lived in Arizona and Verna lived with her for a time.  That was the last I knew.  Kathy was not listed.  Verna was a very smart and strong lady.  She will be missed.

You guys be careful in the storm.  I would love to have a Soft Shelled Crab from Galveston.  If you get a chance have one for me.

Alice, in addition to those listed there was Duane the oldest, I think he was killed in a carwreck years ago in Arizona, and Kathy died in the past year or two.

Had not heard about Kathy.  I miss lots of news since mother passed.  She always kept me informed.  I remember when Duane died.  He was a sweetheart
