The sole issue before the Common Pleas Court and this Court is whether appellee offered sufficient proof to the Retirement Board to establish her entitlement to a total disability pension. As this question was ably disposed of in the opinion of the Honorable JESS S. JIULIANTE, we will affirm on the basis of that opinion. Alessi v. City of Erie, ___ Pa. D. C. 3d ___ (1986).
