Hello Jim, I heard of your mom's passing through Anne Reebs. I am so sorry. I have some wonderful memories of your mother. Her picture makes me smile and she is as lovely as I remember when we were in high school. I am sorry for your loss. Julie Nelson von Geldern

I was so shocked to hear of her passing. She was a classmate celebrating our 70th anniv. of grad. from H.S.
