I worked with Ella at Goldman from 1968 to 1973. I was in the Navy from 1970 to 1972 but returned to work at Goldman's. I hung out there quite a bit since I knew everyone even when I went to work at Washington Twp. Fire Department. I was checking out one day and Ella told me to hold on a minute, she called the girl up who worked in Health and Beauty aids. and introduced her to me. Marilyn and I have been married in April for 44 years. Thank you Ella.

Dear Don and Linda, I am saddened at the passing of your Mother. I never had the pleasure of meeting her, but I know you, and she had to be a very loving and kind lady. You are in my thoughts and prayers, at this time of separation. May you have comfort, that God can truly give. I love you both and your families.
