I knew Sister Lucilla when she was at Holy Angels in Sandusky as principal. Mom used to take us to visit her there. I do remember seeing beautiful slides of her trip to Europe, including the trip on the Rhine. And, my memories include the funny stories my friend, Sharon LaLond, told of being a student there, and getting in trouble, and getting sent to see Sister Lucilla.

Lesa, How gracious of you to post this on your site. I know your mother passed along the information. As a point of reference, I'm Lester's daughter and have be in e-mail contact with 'Cousin Windsor,' as I knew him, for a few years touching base on the all comings and goings in your branch of the family. When I first told Dad that I was e-mailing he just looked at me and said, "Bud?" I didn't know who he was talking about. Took a while, but we figured it out. As for Sister in Europe, I think I remember something about that. I do know she would go out to California to visit her sister Lucy and went down to Florida a few times. No grass grew under those feet!
It's been a long week.
Thank you, again.

Oh, forgot...
"Spradlin Reinbolt" should read Mary Reinbolt Spradlin.
