Our Mothers were such good friends. Their last visit together was wonderful. My Mother still talks about it. With deepest sympathy, from the Elma Peterson family

My thoughts & prayers are with all of you during your loss. I remember Mrs. Soeby well as our family (the Byman's) lived in the same neighborhood and have done some jobs for her throughout the years.

Ruby was the first neighbor to introduce herself when we moved to Longview in 1961. We've remained friends all this time. Birthdays and Christmas will not be the same without her newsy letters - and the crochet snowflake. So sorry I cannot be there for the memorial.
