For some reason, I get the feeling I should know who this is. Someone has
mentioned the name Kunkel to me, but I have no idea when -- may have been
many years ago.
Is Springdale in Ohio or Kentucky? What about Norwood?
Obviously, Cincinnati is Ohio. I'm not familiar with the area, only by maps and
what I've heard.
41 is so young. When my mother was that age she was just starting her
family. Can anyone tell us what the cause of death was? The closest mention
is "unexpectedly."
