Semler Family,
My Godmother rests in peace.
I loved my Godmother. She always greeted me with a smile and a warm hug. I always looked forward to seeing her at the St. Peter's Picnic when I visited PA. Favorite memories of Anna are the white angora berret she made me as a child (I still have it), her wonderful spritz cookies, and our family visiting the Semler family at Chirstmas time. I was truly blessed to have her in my life and now as an angel watching over all of us.
