Not sure what to say?

I was so sorry to hear about the loss of your mom/grandmother. We both joined Questers together at the same time. We enjoyed being a hostess or co-hostess together over the short time we were in the club together. I remember your mom being so proud of the 2 of you and the grandchildren. May her memory be a blessing.

I think she was my kindergarten teacher at Busse school in Mt.Prospect

I was happy to a part of Barb's singing chorus and a friend who I admired . I will miss her. I am so glad I was able to visit with her one day and brought her some of the special meals she loved. God bless her dear soul.

Best of times with the Nelsons
