Sorry to hear about your Mother passing away. We were friends from way
back. I worked with your Dad back in the 50's & 60's. Sorry we will
not be able to attend the viewing or service. Darrell & Bobbie Terry

A wonderful Aunt!! I remember that she taught me how to roller skate around our kitchen table, when I was about 5 years old, many years ago. I will miss her!
