Patti Perry (Daubs)
I haven't been on the website for months - my dear mother's passing among other family issues. I have actually spent a lot of time in Bloomington the past several months helping my mom. Thanks for the post on her passing, Milan; we will miss her, as she was definitely the anchor for my family for most of our growing up ( widowed at 30 with 4 kids under 10). However, I would not have wished her any more suffering. It is really great to see all of the messages that have been posted. I have reconnected with some long lost friends since we have had the website, and have personally hunted down my dear friend, Jeanne Shaffer Olofson in Effingham.
It was a great reunion, and the old pictures of Bloomington that have been posted are fun. When we are in Bloomington, we love to go to Beningo's or Lucca's, even though Casella's in long gone. I am hoping to get to a breakfast later in this Spring.
