To the Family of Mrs Roller,

My Mother also worked at Bearse Manufacturing I'm sure when your Mom worked there. My Mom's name was Betty Schuyler. There were times when I went to visit my Mother and I'm almost sure it was your Mom she was talking to on the phone. I know the pain your family must be going through at this time, as my dear Mom past away 11 years ago at age 82. My deepest sympathy goes out to all of you at this very difficult time.
