Well today after a nice visit of several days, Dennis, Dorothea and Jeffrey left for Detroit. They will visit Dennis’s family for several days. We hated to see them go. Bill and I took them to the airport. Miss them so much. We liked Dennis very much. Dorothea and we are too, so lucky to have such a nice fellow in the family. Raymond was over, also Charlie and Jean called today. Mr. Yates, Dot, Lorraine and Wanda Jean called to see D and D and Jeffrey. Pigs went today.
