To the family of Gail Berglund. I remember growing up in the Baptist Church in Little Falls and seeing your mother with you children, in attendance at church. She was always so sharply dressed! Your mom and my mother (Lois Norr) were friends and I remember your mom being at baby showers and bridal showers over the years. I think some of you kids were the age of my two younger brothers Paul and Robbie Norr. As an aside, my father Harry Norr was friends of your father (Bubbles) and I'm sure he had many cups of coffee and meals in his cafe! Our deepest sympathy to all of your family.
