Alice Ann, Robin and Mark,
When Laura Beth and I came to Humnoke to teach, Fritz and Alice Ann were the first to become life long friends. Fritz and I had lots of fun frog gigging and hunting. He helped me do body work on my old 1947 Ford pickup and wouldn’t even let me pay him for the welding rods. Alice Ann could prepare duck that was delicious. We had a habit of going very often to Bruno’s Little Italy Restaurant when it was located on Rosevelt Road. We were so happy when they attended our fiftieth wedding anniversary. We visited them in their home a little over a year ago. We will miss him.
Friends are like stars you can’t always see them, but you know their always there.
Love and condolences,
Bobby and Laura Beth Lester
