Just learned of your mom's passing yesterday. I stopped by her house and spoke to her neighbors across the street. I haven't spoken to your mom for some time but when I did it felt like a reunion to hear her talk of our good old times on Pinetree Rd.
And her family. I know she will be missed. If there are prayer cards still please send me one.
