Thiesen came after or before. They could have a family connection, because i heard they knew each other before they left to come to the USA. Thanks

I am so sorry to hear about your brother, Kevin. My heart goes out to all of you. I took a photo of mom's copy of the article of Carolyn's accident when I was home over New Years. Mom did not go along that day--she said she didn't want to be a "5th wheel" or "tag a long". I'm sure she always has wondered what if she had been in the car. Can still see the pain in her eyes as she talks about it. Hugs to your mom and dad for me. Emily(Otter)Kessler Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I did get these copies. I was able to get them thru the Rawlin's County Museum. Pete was my Dad's (Tom Mowry) younger brother. I think when Uncle Pete died, you Mom sent a plant to my folk's in Colby. It is such a sad story, but because of the accident my Mom (Marjorie Hutfles Mowry) and Dad met, My Mom was a nurse at the Atwood Hospital. I can't imagine how sad it was for your Mom.
