Dear Mable and family What a wonderful visit we had this spring when you came to Linden with Linda and Kimber. Just was so good to see you all. Our family loved Arnold ( it was always Arnold and Louie) I have a very special toy that he brought me as a child and will always cherish it as a rememberance of him. He had that special grin, which was part of his gentle ways. Soon we will see him again when Jesus comes. Marlene Hoffman Eichelberg and family.
