John, Nora and children came to the Island several times when John was practicing medicine in Chicago in the 70's. Many of us have fond memories of them on Jewell and Rita's porch or in Mary Bert's front yard and Bing getting a piece of plywood to lay in the yard for dancing. Some of us who have been to Ireland would see John, Nora or some of the children. She has left a hole in many hearts...Marie
