Yesterday

I surely did not want to see Mrs. Presser's smiling face as I scrolled through recent obituaries. She was destined to live forever... Unfortunately I didn't check early enough to attend her Memorial. Prudhom kids and Presser kids intertwined throughout Holy Name. "Her wings were ready; our hearts were not." Draw on all of your strength, now ! (srp)
