Patricia, Sue, Gay, and Hope, I am so sorry for the loss of your Mother. I remember what a sweet person she was when I spent the night with Sue when we were in the 4th grade at West Hamlin Elementary. I pray for comfort for you and your families during this difficult time. May the Lord bless each of you. Love and prayers.
