Yes, she was Fred's wife.
Erma was as involved with KF as Fred was, although I'm sure there were times she'd have rather never heard of the company. Erma owned an Indian Ceramic 49 Virginian and was known to drive to meets. If you knew Erma, you knew she wasn't very tall so driving the car was a bit of a challenge.
Lately, she had been working with a couple club members to find new homes for some of the cars and parts Fred had stashed away on the property. I'm sure the family will continue that tradition.
