Then he volunteered at the Delta Center School in third grade with Mrs. Mance and Mrs. Nurezo. After they retired, he moved to the school library and volunteered with Mrs. McBride.

Thoughts and prayers to you and your family.
I have many fond memories of time spent with Hank and Mary. The tree swing in Bay City, camping trips to each new state park that Hank was assigned, parties at our home in Tawas, school, and church.
