Sheila and Brian,

I remember your mom as a dedicated worker at the elementary school when I was principal at New Washington Elem. and also while you two were students. I'm sorry I can't be present to share this pesonally with you both but I spend the winter in Sun City, Az. My prayers go out to the family and I just wanted to let you know my condolences are with you. You had a fine mother.
