Lincoln, Ne Monday, April 4, 2011 So many years ago and many memories. I knew your parents and your sister well. Knew all the neighbors up and down the highway and off. I taught school district 76 for 3 years and many of my students were from that area. I graduated from Fremont High in 1948 and my husband in 1950. Wonderful memories from long ago.
