Mrs. Holstrom was a neat lady. I worked with her at The Heathers. We played a game often of "Whistle a Tune". I would whistle and she would guess the name. She knew many of the hymns and the sacred songs that I was raised on, although I stumpped her on a few. We will meet again. My condolences to the Family and Friends.

Mrs. Holmstrom was my Sunday School teacher at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Joliet, IL. She was a wonderful, godly example to me. I will always remember her fondly and look forward to seeing her in heaven one day!

Sympathy to Addis's family. I am the daughter of Stella (Nelson) Peterson and remember Addis and her husband very well. My mom and dad were good friends of Addis and Bob. She and Bob were great christians. Love to her family from Ivar and Marcella Johnson

Mrs. Holmstrom, as I called her was my Sunday School teacher at Beth. Luth. Church many years ago! She was a fun teacher and we always enjoyed the class parties they held at their home. Her husband was a dear man too. Sincere sympathy to the entire family from my family.
