I am so sorry for your loss. I am a former neighbor and remember your mom and dad taking walks in the neighborhood and I would always stop and talk to them and ask how the kids were doing. She was always smiling and happy and most of all liked to talk about her grand kids were doing. She was a sweetheart.

I'm so sorry for your loss Bill & family. I met with You & Gerri just about 3 weeks ago . She asked about mutual friends we worked with at Mercy and never complained, just asked about the well being of others. I truly miss her as a friend and Nurse to work with. A great family you two have raised. Take care Bill
