Our family, the Leo McCarten family of Lakeside, Michigan, and the Vavra family were close friends. As children, the school bus stopped to pick up the Vavras at the farm, and my dad was the insurance agent in the Three Oaks-New Buffalo area. My sister, Cathy McCarten, and my husband and I live in Whitefield, Maine, near Augusta, and I read the obituary in the Kennebec Journal. We did not know our old neighbors lived so near us - a small world.Our two old families were early settlers in the Berrien area. Our parents died in 1997. We're thinking of you.##imported-begin##Judy McCarten Powell##imported-end##
