    Last night we learned that my sister, Carole in California, had passed away. Her son who lives on the property found her Saturday evening. It is believed that it happened in her sleep. No arrangements so far; my sister, Ragina and cousin Lynn Rae, and I will talk with her son, Dave, more today. Carole had two sons, Dave and Jim; he is older and lives in Ohio. They will make the decision whether to have a service for her in Escondido or in Buckhannon. Burial may be in our home cemetery at Pleasant Dale between Tennerton and Adrian. Meri will accompany me in whichever direction we travel. Carole is divorced; her ex-husband still lives in Escondido. b jae.
