Had not seen Iona in quite sometime but she was part of my childhood, our families visited back and forth often as Laurie and my mother were brother and sister. I do remember wearing some of her hand-me-downs to school . . . . . .
Rest in peace cousin.

You’ll be deeply missed Iona….thanks for all of the great visits that
we had when I was living in Albany New and all of the great visits
via phone over the past 30+ years and sharing our love of our
genealogy obsession.

Sincere sympathy to Iona’s family.
She will be missed by me & my family as she visited twice a month to have her hair appointment for over 30yrs. Most any question could be answered by Iona concerning the history of North Queens.
Rest in peace Iona.
