Rick, My sincere sympathies to you and the family. Mom was a true pioneer of the Christian life. She often visited my mom and my mom always gave her a large bowl of her home made baked beans that your dad just raved about. In appreciation, I sent large fruit baskets to your parents at Christmas. Truly, your mom was a champion, chariot of fire. May the angels lift her up to meet the risen Christ. You have often been in my thoughts. Ed
