As her hairdresser for 43 years until I retired 3 years ago, she was the best. She always called herself my second Mom. Such a warm and generous lady. My heart and prayers go out to her girls and family. She loved you all so deeply. Fondly and with sympathy, Angela Rasnack

We have many fond memories of Terry and Dave over the decades from both St. Martin's and the Windfall Prophets Investment Club. Always lively and good-hearted people, and you're right about the soups!! We miss the Simkos.
