Gordon, it is with the deepest sympathy I offer my condolence for the passing of your mother who to me was a precious and wonderful neighbor for over fifty years starting in 1961. She was a wonderful neighbor and friend. Earl Angus

Gordon and other family members, your Mom and sister was a very special lady and dear family friend to the Davis family. My sincere condolences for your loss. She is with Mr. Rusch now and has one of the better seats in the house to watch the Redskins! You are in my thoughts and prayers.
