Saint Louis, MO Monday, July 12, 2021 Ab, I am so sorry to hear about Martha's passing. David texted me yesterday after you let him know. I had hoped to come for the service, but my schedule is so full this week, I can't make the drive from Saint Louis to Monticello. Please know that I have fond memories of all of us cousins spending time together when we were kids. I realize this might have been one of the few times I'd see some of my McAllister cousins. I'll be there in spirit. Jenny
