Sincerest condolences to the Young family on the loss of their mother.
The 'quartet', (Ken, Eleanor, Don and Gerry) is once again whole. Our pray is that they join together 'camping-out' in Heaven for eternity with the Boy Scouts and Knight of Columbus.
May they all rest in peace.
Love,
Joyce and Bob Niersbach
