Dear Jill & Kelly,
So sorry to hear about the "Queen B´s" passing. (We argued over which of us deserved that title!)
She was a great help to our family providing meals & company to our Dad.

We were sorry to hear of Johanna´s death last week. She was a good person. Her help with my Dad and Ric´s mom was invaluable.And her flowerbeds were always a treat to the eyes!
