Dear Family,
I am saddened to hear of the passing of your Mother. She was a very kind and considerate person. I had the privilege of calling on her when she worked in the Dallas Exchange as a buyer for a number of years. I was always impressed by her. If she said she was going to do it, she did it. I am sure she will be missed, and the world was a better place for her having been here. God bless you all.

Dear Roger, Mark , Beth, Steve and Marnie,

I had the pleasure of working with your mother here in Japan at the Pacific Buying Office. She is a truly remarkable lady...strong, yet kind and gentle; intelligent and a good teacher. She was great to work for and like her husband, I will miss her very much. Find strength in your memories of her.

Dear Roger, Mark , Beth, Steve and Marnie,

We are with you in hearts and mind during this time. Can not help but remember your mom's laugh at family gatherings. She would always laugh and say get out here! Then say are you serious?
Love you
