I'm so sorry for your loss. I was a nurse at CMAL for awhile and really enjoyed taking care of Mrs Muhler. She proudly told me the story of her husband inventing crest toothpaste.

Joe, I read of your mother's passing in the Journal Gazette and just wanted to share my sympathy with you and your family. It's a whole new ballgame when the last of a generation is gone and you are now that older generation. Praying that you will find comfort and that your families will remain close even without the "glue" that mothers bring to the family.
Prayerfully,
Ruth Dotterer
