Loretta, I have many fond memories of the mornings spent at your home before high school. Your mother's graciousness, hospitality, and caring were a blessing to me. She was a very special lady. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Lori, I loved your mom and cherish the many happy days I spent with your family. Your mom's home- and gardenmaking skills were inspiring. And, how did she find the time to do so much for so many others? We were all blessed by her spirit and company. Thinking of you,

Lori & Bill:
I sang in the choir with Laura so many years ago at the Ft. Calhoun Church and was in Star with her and worked at the bank too. We have always enjoyed her Christmas cards. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Laura will be missed

My sympathies, guys. Haven't seen you in many years. Lost my dad June 2. Let me know how you're doing.

I worked with your Mom at the Fort Calhoun Bank several years ago. I remember when she celebrated her 80th birthday. I always enjoyed working with Laura. I went to see her after she broke her hip. She had been on my mind lately. I'm so sorry I won't be able to attend the funeral. My 93 year old Aunt died and her funeral is in Calhoun Friday. You have my sincere sympathy and I feel for your loss. She will be missed.
