Our family always enjoyed our visits with Rex and Janice. To this day, mention of them evokes happy memories. Once, when they visited Maryland, they dragged Judy and me out to a dance hall we didn't even know was there...had a ball! We ate cottage cheese pancakes in the morning!!Our sincere condolences to the family.
