Chasta and Michael I am so sorry for your loss. It's been a long time since I have seen you all. I knew your Mom thru my friendship with LeRoy. May God's peace and love be with you both and your families.

Chasta, I remember serving with your mother on Tanglewood Elementary's very first site-based management team so many years ago. She was such a pleasure to work with, and I enjoyed knowing her. I know you will miss her.
