Lisa Schroeder wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Winny, I don't know who else to send this, but no one ever told me Uncle Sal was ill. My brother told me he passed away when I contacted him and my mom (Gloria) for Easter. Uncle Sal was my favorite uncle even though we didn't stay in contact much. We both had a fondness for horses. You visited my husband and me at our new home in Willsboro, NY, many years ago. I'm sorry to learn he has left us. I also hope and pray you are holding up. All my sympathy -Lisa Schroeder (Dybas).”
