Dear Madge
First, let me introduce myself. I am LaVon Mae Freudenberg Philpot, daughter of George and Frieda (Rickerts) Freudenberg. I know that I have not even met most of you, but I treasure all of my family in Nebraska. My Mom always spoke so kindly about all of you and I only wish that I did get to meet and visit with all of you on a regular basis. My heart goes out to you all - please accept my most heartfelt condolences
With Love, LaVon
