"My sympathy to Mary Ann and Marsha and families. I?ll always remember wonderful meals at the Niehaus farm and beautiful flowers. Music by Emory on the baby grand pianos was also very special. As a littl e girl I always wondered why Emory had two pianos. Perhaps he knew he would have two little girls"
