BECKY EMRICH'S SISTER PASSES AWAY

If you don't follow Facebook you might not know that Becky's sister Joann Walker passed away last night in Little Rock. Becky has been posting daily as she visited Joann in the hospital, and I think I missed the very beginning post. Joann and husband Dennis were on vacation in Arkansas when she became sick. Her lungs were involved and it's now been a two week battle which Joann fought valiantly, but lost last night. Please keep Becky and her family in your prayers. When I learn more, I will post. Our classmate Gary Schmidt is now at home resting and progressing a bit each day after two heart attacks and surgery this past weekend. He too needs all our prayers and positive vibes.
