To Jim and Family Sorry to hear about your Mom's passing. The few times I met her beginning in August of 1972 when I delivered "Burt" to your home, she always made me feel very welcomed. I will always have fond memories of her Jim, I hope this finds you in good health. I would like to get together with you sometime in the near future if possible. Take care!! Joe Ploessl Cassville

I am so sorry to hear about Sis' s passing. She was very special to me and my family. I loved coming over and drinking a couple of Old Milwaukee' s with her. We solved many world problems together. She will always occupy a special place in my heart. What a beautiful person and dear friend! ! All my love, Dana Sweeney (also Dan, willow, Tyler and Shane).
