Diary Entry for 2/28/1999

Very windy. Raining all day. We went to church. 51 out. Wayne came after us. A lovely musical service. They sang When the Roll is Called up Yonder for Merrill, his favorite. His grandfather used to sing it to him as a small boy. I called Jim. He will take us to funeral home for Helen Monday night. Lyla called to say it was in today’s Times that Helen Rockwood age 80 died yesterday in Syracuse hospital. Jolie called to say they would be over. They were here most of PM. Jolie not feeling too good. She is getting cold. I gave her Vicks Vapor rub. Merrill drove them crazy as usual.
