2025 is not the year for the Van Cleve family. Susan has had an aneurysm in her brain for over 10 years but recently the size of the aneurysm grew and she will have surgery to clip it on Monday, August 18. Her neurosurgeon believes this will be successful and that her recovery shouldn't take longer than a month. Unfortunately, Ray's radiation treatment begins shortly and he and John and Cassandra will travel to Boston at the end of August to prepare for his radiation. Too much surgery! Margaret is in Turkey and cannot help except with scheduling! See below for requests to be updated regularly. We are very grateful for all of you who have already been so helpful!
