    Dear Diane,

    Somehow while searching thru Fremont Ross and old HS information this popped up. Even though it has been several years now, please accept my condolences. Your Dad and Mom were always so kind to me. I think of you often and have you tucked into the treasure chest of some of my most precious memories.

    Love and prayers,
    Shilia Terry (Wamsley) Hale
