   year before my Mom died.   
      
     I lived into the same building as my mother my first year of college, in   
   an apartment on the floor above her.     
     Then when I moved back here I stayed at her place about a month until I   
   found an apartment.

     Sissy was 25 years my senior (father's first marriage) and more of an   
   aunt than a sister.  She had been on her own for years, married and separated,   
   etc.   
     She only lived with the family that time from 1958-63.  She moved to the   
   DC area in November, 1963, and other than a Christmas card that year never   
   hear from her again.  Until I read her obit a few years ago.

     His son Chuck has been married to the same woman for about 40 years.   
     His daughter married once and a widow since '01.
