Morae, I am so sorry about your most wonderful loving mom. I think you remember me, Diana Schroeder, I sold your mom and dads home on aqui verde and sold her the beautiful manufactured home she had in RiverOaks, Your mom was so special to me, and when I was at the river home one day, she insisted I pick one of her oil paints, I always admired her talent as a painter. And her sweet style of being a most gracious and swee, sweet woman. I wish all of the world could be like your mom was. She without a doubt will always have a special place in my heart, and you Morae, she talked about you all the time and how you stopped every night and made you two dinner. She loved you with all her heart... Please just know everyone will be missing your mom, a one of a kind lady...???

My Dearest Friend Morae,
My heart goes out to you during this sad time. You were always there for your dear,sweet beautiful Mother and your love for her with obvious. I know how much you will miss her. I will always remember growing up in Red Bluff and having you both in my life. I am so thankful that I got to see her and visit with her 2 years ago when visiting in Red Bluff. And I thoroughly enjoyed our special times together earlier this year. I wish now that I had gotten to see your Mom. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. I'm here for you if you want to talk. Lots of Love and Hugs, Cheryl (Lambert) and Rich Nolte X O X O

Dear Morae,
I was saddened to read in this morning's paper that your dear mother has passed away. I noticed your absence at the Emblem Club dinner last Tues. and I now know why you were unable to attend. Your mother was such a gracious lady and I'm sure she'll be missed by many. I'm making a donation to the Emblem Club in memory of your Mom.
With sympathy,
Helen Carroll
