Dear Donna, Neil, Dave and Families
Sorry to read of your Mother's death today. She was always such a up person and always smiling. She lived to be a wonderful age and seemed like she really enjoyed life. You will all miss her and Donna if you are still in the Chicago area, I hope you got home pretty often these last few years, to visit her. I am in Texas now for the winter, and will not be home for the graveside service. My prayers are with all of you.
