ReplyDeleteDear Jack. I was shocked and surpised to learn of Rea's death. Joanne Warren told me just a month ago that, during a conversation, Rea had suggested we all get together for a reunion. Rea and I worked very closely together many years ago at the Conference Board. Her spirit, dedication and "no nonsense" ability to keep us all going in the right have always been an inspiration to me. I am happy to learn that, following retirement, she has had such an active, fulfilling life. My warmest wishes to you all. Florence Campbell
ReplyDeleteJack..so sorry to hear about Rea. She was a beautiful lady inside and out and a great friend to mom. Be sure to take care of you self...surround yourself with family and love. Debbie Rogers
