Dear Marianne and Family,
Bill and I send our sincere sympathy on the loss of your Mom. Such a lovely lady! It was always such a pleasure to talk and visit with her in later years. She raised one of the best babysitters the Seman Family ever had! Seeing she and your Dad at St. Albert the Great was a great encouragement to younger couples in the parish. Regards and prayers to all the family. Gail and Bill Earman
