Allen, Barbara and Family -- Thinking of you at the passing of Mrs. Tappe. She lead a faithful life and I know you will find comfort that she is now at peace. I lost my Mom two years ago at Thanksgiving and my Dad during the holidays last year so I know it is a difficult time for you. You were all so wonderful to me years ago when I needed a Church family and I will always be so appreciative of your kindness. You are in my prayers. Dana Shipp
