My condolences to her family, I knew her Husband Jack from working with him at Camden Lumber, also I worked with her Son Frank at Joffe Lumber in Vineland, and finally I knew her other son Melvin as he was my dentist for several years. She certainly raised two fine sons, is the best compliment any mother could receive.
