Molly and Sam,
I am so sorry for your loss. I am your grandma´s neighbor and friend. Your mom was loved by everyone who knew her. I always enjoyed talking to her and having her swim in our pool in the summer. She will be missed a lot by everyone who knew her.
Sincerely,
Sheryl Clark

I was so sorry to hear of Aunt Vicki´s passing, my mother (Linda Oehmke) and Vicki were close friends , when I was little, one of my fondest memories as a child was having the honor of being flower girl in her wedding. I still have the tiny pink bible she gave to me as a gift. When I was married in 1996 she sent me a beautiful Christmas tree skirt, it still sits under my tree every year.
