Pam, Rachel and Jenny,
I am so sorry for your loss. Dulena was a long time neighbor and friend, a member of the best card group in town. After I moved to Vermont she made the annual trip up every summer for many years with Kathy, Mary and Vicki.
We even made it to Montreal one year. You are in my thoughts and prayers.
May God be with you at this difficult time. Love, Joan
