Deepest Sympathies to the Yelk Family on the death of your mom, Cecelia. I remember working at the St Francis Church Picnic with your mom...making coffee! That was her specialty as she told me while standing on a tall chair to reach the filters in the coffee maker. She was a lovely considerate lady. Blessings to you all.
