To Mrs. O'Barto's Family,
My brother and Scott(y) were in the same class in elementary school. Our mothers got to know each other while picking up their kids from school.
Years later, when I became organist at ROUMC , I got to know her better. Everytime I went grocery shopping for mom, I would see her and we would chat for a long time. Joe was our plumber for awhile before he became ill.
May continuing to share memories of her keep her alive in your hearts always.
May God continue to be with you all during this time of grieving.

I will never forget your kindness Mrs. Ellen. How you took time to call me when my mother was in the hospital. I got to know you as one of my customers at the bank but you became a dear friend to me. We shared a lot of laughs. I will miss you. Sandra
