Hi Linda, Thank You for the information. You once sent me an obituary for Dorothy Reichert. I was able to meet her 2 sisters, Erna and Marie, this past summer. All 3 of them were cousins of my grandmother. They had lots of pictures to share with me as well as lots of stories. They are both sharp as a tack.
