Message from Gary about donations vs flowers:



> Hi Ann
> Donations to Avalon Square In Waukesha. My Mother was there in assisted living
unit. So if you want that would be fine. My sister and I don't want to be over
whelmed with flowers. The flowers would wind up going to Avalon Square any way.
> Thanks for your concern and your not bugging me.
