Dear Lorene, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I will always remember you and Charles and how special you are. Remember when we worked so hard to get our friend Jim elected to the Senate & then to Congress? It was well worth the effort because we are so proud of him. Ayvonne & Julia & I always said how much we missed you when you moved away. I still see Julia & she is so talented. We love you & just want you to know how much we care. Your friend, Billie S. Loshbaugh (Mrs. Dean)
