Melanie Comments on "It was a nice funeral."

This was very nice, Mom. I didn't realize that Merlene Collard had so much in common with our Danish heritage. I agree, the best thing for her was to leave Mills. I remember going there to drop of school students when Dad drove the bus.

As for Marty, he would tease Todd and me incessantly. One day, we had Maria hold him down while we fed him mud pies with choke cherries in them. He didn't bother us after that. (He doesn't seem to remember that I was the one making the "pies," not the one actually doing the feeding...just guilty by association with the Harmons.) It seemed to work though. He played nicely after...then he moved away for a long time.

Love you all.
