I just wanted to share with you all an article about my oldest son Doug (Jones)
who recently donated one of his kidneys to a friend who needed it.
I am really looking forward to the reunion next year. It’s hard to believe
that we are all so old. I keep in touch via e-mails with Marty, Janet, Trudy
and Rosie but that’s about all. I may see Rosie once a year or so (she’s about
1 hour away) but we both work too many hours to get together much! Let
everyone know that I would be happy to answer any e-mails if anyone would like
to write. Click here to read Doug's story
