We were so sorry to hear about Elva. I have informed Mary Moss about her dear friends passing. I am so glad that we were able to bring Mary to Elva's last birthday party, they had such a good time visiting with each other. Mary was so pleased that the grandaughter brought Elva to visit her at the Lutheran Home. Your family is in our prayers.
