Even though I cannot remember you, although I do remember your name; I want you to know that I really appreciate your taking the time to send this email to my aunt. I know it made her day. She spent a lot of time and vented her grief into writing this book. It was an outlet for her. With all of the the terrible things going on in the world today, its nice to know that there are still caring people out there. My cousin, King, was a very sweet guy also. We all miss him immensely.

I went to school with Ivy during grade school and jr. high. We were very good friends at one time. I moved away my freshman year and lost track of most of my classmates. I also remember Lori and King. I also became friends with Ivy's cousin Julie who lived in Midvale. I saw the article in the Times Reporter today about your book and your son. My heart goes out to you. I have two daughters of my own and cannot imagine losing one of them. You are a very strong woman and I admire you. Please tell Ivy that I think about her often, even though she probably doesn't remember me. I think as we get older, we reminisce about the past a little more. I now live in New Philadelphia with my husband of 22 years. My girls are both on their own now and I just welcomed my first grandchild into the world in March. You are in my prayers. God Bless You!

Back atcha, precious angel!
Love you, Just Joan. I read the book and cried through most of it. I know you wrote that with a broken heart, but you have helped yourself in a healing way by writing it. I know King is very proud of you. I certainly am!
Love you much,
Your forever friend,
Just Joy

Yes, I remember your website. I think it is all you wanted it to be. Many PA authors somehow manage to write about very emotional personal matters and that cannot be easy.
That is why I do not really feel my book deserves to be singled out. It is just a book on the physics of the universe.
My basic website for the book is http://freewebs.com/jckeohane
Thank you so much of thinking about me, my thoughts are with you.
I have not made any number of sales to warrant book of the month unless somebody knows something I don`t. Having our books is the most important thing.
take care,
best wishes from john

From: Sgalbreath58@wmconnect.com To: Linkin5 Sent: Tue, 30 Aug 2005 7:53:31 AM Eastern Daylight Time Subject: From Sandy Shurtz Galbreath 58 Dear Joan, Was shocked and saddened to read the article in the paper last week. I talked with Ruth Wright Richardson (email) and we had not a clue how to reach you. I was surprised to find an answer from my request this morning. First, let me tell you how very sorry I am for your loss. I know it sounds hollow and just words but it comes straight from my heart. I thank God everyday for my kids and grandkids, but realize how lucky I have been. We are prepared, or so they say, for the loss of a parent, spouse, or sibling but you never put your child in that possibility. I can't believe it has been going on 50 years since we have had contact, but you never forget a classmate. There are quite a few of us that never made it out of the booming metropolis. My life has been quite full and prosperous. Never got rich but that is only material, my wealth has never been in dollars and cents. I married the love of my life and had 4 awesome kids, 3 boys and a girl, which live on the farm with me. We own 72 acres just outside of Dennison toward Stillwater. Three years ago I lost my husband of 40 years and since then my life has been a struggle, maybe because I don't feel like I have a purpose any longer but I keep all that well hidden. Life has to go on and you only make it worse for everyone if you don't get aboard. I fill my time with junk..........run to Walmart!!!!!! pretty exciting huh. I closed my beauty shop when Gene became ill and could never get back to it. After all those years of standing decided to sit for a while. Virginia Willard Barker and I are still best friends and spend a lot of time together. Bob just retired and as every one of us we don't jump as high, run as fast, turning gray and fat. I do have an advantage........haircolor but haven't figured out the fat part yet. I could go on and on but I am trying to catch up 50 years in a note. Hope to hear from you with news of your life. Look for more e-mails from your old friends and I told them to add 58 after their names so you wouldn't think it was junk mail. Take care and once again I am thinking of you. Sandy Shurtz Galbraith From: RuthnJay To: Linkin5 Sent: Tue, 30 Aug 2005 9:49:00 AM Eastern Daylight Time Subject: Class of 58 Hi Joan, Friends and family from back home sent me the article from the newspaper. I hope you remember me, Ruth Wright. We were together in school for years. I lived on the South Side and remember you and Winnie so well.
I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your wonderful child. He sounds as though he was a great guy. I'm so glad you had the strength to write the story. Perhaps if it helps to open some peoples eyes, life will get better for all of Gods children.
I would love to hear from you when you have the time. I love this being on the internet. It keeps me in touch with friends and family back home on a daily basis. We live in Wilmington, Delaware. Have been here since 1965. Like most people we thought we'd stay here a few years and then go back home. But the kids made friends and put down roots and here we are. I still miss Dennison though. It was a wonderful little town to grow up in. Drop me a line sometime when you have time.
Sandy Shurtz and I would love to get something going where we could all be on the internet at one time and talk with each other. But first we must find more people on here from our class. I have Gloria Mc Peek Parrish),and Norma Parrish(Moorehead) who I e-mail with. Take care Joan, and may God bless you and your family.
Ruth (Wright) Richardson
