Hi Debbie. I just heard from my mom that your mom had passed. I'm sorry to hear this- your mom made a big impression on me as a child. I'll always remember her pink couch and white furry carpets! She was such an interesting character and a lovely person with a kind nature. My aunt Gisele loved to tell stories about her. I know she and my mom loved her very much.

Debbie and Ken. I met your mom through Bea and she was such a sweetheart. I will remember her as the dancing queen. What a wonderful life she had. You will miss her dearly. Will treasure just knowing her for a short time. Donah Neidig
