I haven't seen Harvey for at least three decades. Life seems to go on whethere we are there or not, doesn't it.

Do you have any addresses? I would love to send a sympathy card to the kids.

John and Lynne Staggs
6011 Hart Road
Alamosa, CO 81101
Janice
6148 County Road 103
Alamosa, CO 81101

these are the only addresses. I know Donnie lived across from where we did on Blanca Vista, but I don't know the number.

Marcy went to the graveside service. She said Donnie talked and they had prayers. It last about 30 minutes. The girls were there. Apparently Harvey was married before Raedeen - with two children.
