Hi family,
You all have been in my thoughts these last few months. I've been trying to figure out how to get in touch with your Mom. We've lost contact since she moved to Texas. I'm doing Family History and wanted to talk to her about it. I do not take the Tribune and so I just discovered. Sad
I'm really sorry to hear she passed. She was a lovely person and very sweet to me. Hugs to all of you.
Please call me. 435-884-6741
