Ethel Chernock Dies

I'll put up the memorial service details as soon as I know them.  For those of you who were on the team in the late 70s and 80s, Ethel Chernock was somewhat of a mom away from home.  She has been struggling with cancer for the past three years (after being told she had six months to live).  She died last night (2.3.14) at home with Roy at 7:30.  Roy and Ethel were married 62 years.  More soon.
