My sympathy to the entire Andrecht family, but to Paula, my lifelong friend: I shall always remember the fun times had with you and your mother - when we were young and she was sharing her knowledge on how young ladies should act, then playfully admonish us with a "tsk tsk" when those lessons didn't quite take - the many times she would say "now see, Miss Paula, eating brussels sprouts does not kill you" when I'd eat them (heehee) - and, especially the times shopping for things for your wedding for she had as much fun as we did. She was a delightful lady, had the greenest of thumbs, was an excellent cook and seamtress, but above all, a wonderful Christian woman who lived by example. We mourn, but imagine those who await her at Heaven's Gates.
