Praying for your family and you, Larry. I so loved your mom and all the times I worked in election's site. She was so fun and knowledgeable in what to do in the election in different positions. She helped my mom in contacting her when she was home bound to keep her in touch with what was happening in church. I really am glad that I got to know her better. We had a few conversations at her home and kept each other in prayer.
Blessings to your family and many memories are in your hearts. Thinking
of you on Sat and I will not be at the services as I will be working.
