I was a care taker for Mr. Frey for 1 1/2 years and in that time, I got to know Miss Elva and her family. To the family my prayers are with you at this time. I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother after the passing of your father just a short time ago. May you take comfort in the good memories you have of her and the stories friends and neighbors will share with you.
