    Dear Huber family, so sorry to hear of your loss. My family were neighbors across St.Joseph Rd during the ’50’s & 60’s.My sister Linda and I use to play with older boys. At times your Mom fixed us lunch. My Dad, Chester, helped you Dad bail hay in summer. Your Mom told my Mom,Lucille, she would hear her “yelling” at me across the road “Sharon Kay”, she thought that was a pretty name that she decided to name her baby after me. Good childhood memories growing up on St. Joseph Rd. Deepest sympathy, Sharon & Linda Shaw
