The 'farm' was really a different environment for us, and we all loved it, and, of course, Aunt Florence, Uncle Kelly, Janet and Mary Alice. Our deep sympathy and love to the all the family.         Shirley and Wally #6 from: Jjim and Nancy Hollenbeck Lombard Illinois Thu, Jul 23, 2009 at 8:34 PM Janet and Mary Alice and Family So sorry to hear about Aunt Florence.  She was my last living Aunt.  93 years old how fortunate to have her that long.  I will always be grateful for the summer I spent with you all on the farm, I was 15 years old and I wanted to stay and go to school there but of course my mom said no. Aunt Florence and Uncle Kelly would have let me.  I loved to help Aunt Florence.  She was a wonderful woman and Aunt.  I am so sorry.                      Nancy #7 from: Sis Camburn Marion Thu, Jul 23, 2009 at 8:58 PM                                                 Mary and Jan, my heartfelt sympathy to you                                               Weep but briefly as your loved one enters the kingdom of God- - for their eyes behold what we on earth can only dream of, take care and GOD Bless Sis                         #8 from: Don and Juanita Meredith Green Camp, OH  43322 Fri, Jul 24, 2009 at 11:24 AM To Janet, Mary Alice and the rest of your families: We remember your mother as a Charter member of the G.C.
