Tom, I am so sorry to hear of your mother's passing. She was such a wonderful and lovely mother, wife, and grandmother. Your mother was always so very good to me. One of the many memories I will cherish forever is sitting at your kitchen table on Saturday morning eating your mother's homemade from scratch swedish pancakes. They absolutely melted in my mouth. She will be missed by myself and all those whose lives she touched.

So sorry to learn of Ethel's passing. She was a lovely lady and so talented. She made the best pickled herring and delighted so much in her Swedish pastries. She will be missed by her First Lutheran Friends. May Ethel Rest In Peace as she now joins Holger in their Heavenly home. ✝
