Just recently I came across mention of the death of Ramona Lehman, who with her husband Bob operated the famed Munger-Moss Motel in Lebanon, Missouri for so many years last August.
I was off line completely from May to December last year so did not hear anything about her death.
Of all the great old-timers Liz and I met on Route 66 over the years, we liked Ramona and Bob the best and looked forward to our nearly every year trip to stay with them at that neat motel. I especially enjoyed the morning coffee inn the lobby when we would talk about all sorts if things and , of course with visitors checking out.
I doubt that she ever met someone she didn't like. But, never tell her that Illinois has better Route 66 signage than Missouri as that could get you on her bad side quickly. I did that once.
I was looking forward to visiting her again this year, but guess not. It will also be different as Liz won't be with me either.
So Long Ramona, Old Friend. --RoadDog
