Very sad news.  Grew up down the hill from the Stricklands. Was a guest in their home on many occasions. Was friends with Regina, Susan and Frankie from elementary school until we left for Germany in 1964.  Spent many Friday nights in their company at Baker "Sock-hops".  

My prayers are with the family on this somber occasion.  Just remember her SMILE !
