Carter, Bob and Judy, hearing about Evelyn’s passing was sad and yet so joyful for her to be entering a new and more wonderful world. I think of both Evelyn and Carter often when I remember my days on North Green Street. We had some wonderful times there. Bob and Judy, it’s been several years since we taught together but those times are very special to me still. Love to all of you and to Carol Ann and Jennifer as well. Mona
