You will be missed. Thank you to the Duran Family for taking in my Father. It was a small home, however you so gracely put a bed in the garage for him. He lived there for many years and went to school. He came from Mexico when his mother drown in the river. God Bless the Duran Family for doing that for my Father Louis Arrendondo Duran.
Thankfullness and Love,
Ann Edna Mudry
