Thinking of Alma's family at this sad time. We met Alma at Harmony. She moved in at about the same time as my father. We would all sit by the fireplace and talk in the evening. She was such a wonderful person. She so reminded me of my mother. She loved her family and prayed for everyone! Rest in peace, Alma.
