I was so sad to learn of your mother's passing. She was one of the first people I met when I was introduced into the Gephart family, and she quickly became one of my favorites. She was always such a livewire, and I loved her infectious laughter. She and your dad were such wonderful friends with Claude and Dorothy. I remember her being such a loyal member of the Turners, and I don't think I was ever there that she wasn't there also. She was always so proud of all of you and kept us posted on the happenings of her kids and grandkids. I know you will all miss her terribly, but what memories she left you with! My sincere and deepest sympathy to all of you at this sad time.
