Sending my thoughts and prayers to your family. My mother was Doris Peterson Fahlgren. She and Sally were friends all their lives. The last time I saw them was at Irma McInerney's funeral where we visited over lunch. They were such a warm and caring couple. It is hard to lose your parents so close together. I picture my parents reunited in heaven and it helps. Good bless all of you.
