No. 56702.

787 S.W.2d 766 (1990)

Geraldine HARGAN, et al., Appellants, v. SEARS, ROEBUCK AND COMPANY and Otis Elevator Company, Respondents.

Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, Division One.

February 27, 1990.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Ray B. Marglous, James E. Lownsdale, Clayton, for appellants.

Kurt S. Odenwald, St. Louis, for Sears.

George F. Kosta, St. Louis, for Otis.

We affirm.
