I was saddened to read about your Mother's passing. I grew up in the Voss area and lived on a farm approximately a mile and a half north of the Walter Greever's Farm (relatives who raised your mother). While I was a young child (approximately three years youngers than your mother), I did play with your Mother and I also played with your Aunt Jody (as she was attending the Voss school). I attended school for just a short time in Voss before moving to Grafton. I believe that your Aunt Doris Schiller was my teacher for a short time while I was enrolled in the Voss School. My specialthoughts and prayers are with all of you as family during this most difficult time. If you as a family share these comments with your Aunts, I would so greatly appreciate getting a note from them. My parents were Joe and Myrtle Duray and my maiden name was Doris Duray. I live in rural Cannon Falls, MN and I noted in the obituary that one of you live in South St. Paul. My e-mail is dgruber@rconnect.com. Doris Gruber Doris Gruber

So sad to note your passing. I grew up with Harry and school at Ardoch Dist #11. Your M-I-L and my Mom were sisters as was Frances Narloch. You will be missed. I'll light a candle for you and Harry. Tom Korynta, Davie FL.
