I am so sorry for family, friends and community that a lovely person is no longer in our midst.
I will have the memories but miss Alma's friendship with my mom and me when we attended events like a fair in Great Falls, bowling in Glagow, and special occasions like my graduation from MSU. Eastern Star and family memories enriched and extended our closeness. Because of Alma her parents, siblings, and children hold a special place in my heart. With sadness and love, Carole Johnson Rutherford Brown
