So sorry to hear my cousin Lil passed away. i visited with her on Wed. at Mala Strana. I was bringing her a couple photos today and found out she wasn’t there any more. Could you please let the girls know that she will be dearly missed. So sad her brother Eugene passed away on April 1st. She said to me last week that she really missed him with tears in her eyes. Very nice lady. from Cousin Carole Schumacher
