Brenda, Janet, & family, My deepest heartfelt condolences to you all. I'll always remember her as one of the dearest of neighbors, as a caring Girl Scout mother, and my first professional hairdresser. I loved sitting for her as she styled my hair. You were blest to have had such a wonderful mom. May Heaven rejoice.
