I was a childhood friend of your mom's. We attended Chandler Street School and North High School together. In fact, we walked to high school together each day and then I drove her when I got a car. She was my maid-of-honor when I got married. Unfortunately, we lost touch with each other as our lives went separate ways. I don't think I've seen her since we were in our 20s. Anyway, Judy Pulsifer told me about her death and I was saddened to learn that my childhood friend had passed away. I have only the fondest memories of her and the good times we shared together. She was a beautiful, talented and wonderful person and a true friend. I want to extend my warmest condolences to you all.
Sincerely,

Lynda & Lyndsey Rogers
