To everyone that knew my Mom, I just wanted you to know that she died peacefully in her sleep at home with her family around her. My Dad is doing ok ,but is very sad,which is to be expected. They were married for 68 years, which in this day and age is a very long time. Our family is rallying around him now and in the months to come. Our littleist member of our family, Hallie, is great comfort to him. That you all for the friendship and love you gave to my mom. Love, Judy
