Sorry to see that Karoline passed away. Got to visit with her several times since she
moved to personal care. Always had a smile on her face. The Dunns were very nice
neighbors and I miss seeing both of them. Jim Silvius

I just saw this obituary in the Lancaster Newspaper and recognized your mother, remembering your parents from over 45 years ago when I was a newly ordained priest at St. Mary’s, Ardmore. I just recall their kindness and the support they gave me when I was ordained in January 1975 at St. Mary’s. Five years ago I retired from full-time ministry and two years ago moved to the Ephrata area. I hold your mother in my memory and in prayer.
Grace and peace, (The Rev.) Mark Scheneman
