Dear Ellen, Lisa, Chuck and Family: My heart goes out to each of you in the loss of your mom. I remember when we were growing up all the times at your house down on 910. You mom was always so happy and friendly and treated me as if I was one of the family. I know you will always have wonderful memories in your heart of your mom. She was truly a wonderful person. Warmly, Judy Turner Fisher.
