Edie, how sad for me to read of the passing of your sweet mom. She was such a dear lady. I have thought of you often over the years and wondered where you were. I would love to have the chance to hear from you at some point. I have such fun memories of our times together in Arcadia and in church! Love to all the Keiths as you face the coming days.
