Bob, Jon, Judy, and families, My mother, Susan Madsen Jorgensen just called me and told me that her cousin Bev had died. She did not know until this evening. Mom was very fond of Bev and always enjoyed the few times she got to see her and of course her phone visits and hearing about all of you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. And, of course my mother sends her love and prayers also. Hattie Conradson, Fort Calhoun, Nebraska

It was obvious that Bev loved watching her Grandkids in sports. At the Ord Jr. High Wrestling meet she was so excited to watch Dusty that I thought she would roll away. It makes me smile to think of that! What a blessing to have such a Mom and Grandma! Our deepest sympathies are with you and your family.

So sorry to hear of the passing of your mother, Sue. I always enjoyed talking to her when she would stop in to Casey's when I lived in Ord. It's never easy to lose our parents no matter how old or how sick they are-may God give you strength and comfort at this time.
