Janice, yes, I do know why this list was made. Someone passed away in Bob's family. I don't know who, but the Asturians of Spelter sent flowers and a list of names was sent along with the flowers so the family would know who sent them. This was a common practice with the Asturians of Spelter. I can remember many times when flowers were sent out of state to families that they knew. The Asturians of Spelter never forgot other families in the community or out of state. We were, and are, a caring people.
