Bill and I were so grateful to have the friendship of your mom and dad. Bill worked with your dad and spoke so highly of him. I had the pleasure of meeting both mom and dad when I had you girls in school at Riverview. It wasn’t until we visited your parents in Missouri that we began a long distant friendship. Our yearly Christmas letters to each other kept us in touch with what our families were doing. Our last Christmas letter from your mom brought some sad news about her health. Even though we could feel her sadness, we could feel the happiness she had for her life and the wonderful family she was given. Your mom may be gone from this this Earth; but her memories will be with us forever.
