What a great lady to have had the pleasure of meeting. Mrs. Armstrong held a special place in the heart of my sister-in-law Marlene Burkert who spoke of her often and enjoyed their times together. I'm sure she touched many lives and will be sadly missed. My sympathy to all who had the pleasure of having her in their lives. Donna Burkert Grothaus
