To Mona-- You may or may not remember me, but we worked together at Tempo way back before we graduated from high school. I recently moved back to Wis., after living out-of-state for many years. I read in the Reporter that your mom had passed away, so I thought I'd offer my sympathy. The obituary sounds like your mom lived a long and full life; I hope that was the case. I'll be praying for comfort for you and your loved ones.
