To the family of Edwin and Gwen Augustine, I wish to express my sympathy and thanks for their many contributions to society in both Washington County Iowa and to Ames. They have always been a link for me to my own origins in Washington County and to their deceased sister Ruth and to their surviving sister Janet of Colorado. It was my intention to personally arttn their Celebration of Life today, but am exhausted following completion of a radiation regimine completed yesterday at Mary Greeley Hospital in Ames. I am forwarding a contribution to their memory at the Seed Savers Exchange in Decorah, Iowa. Richard F. Ross
