You have my sympathy from Ruby Handel, Lucille was the best hair dresser I ever had. I sure do miss her, and she was a great flower woman.

Dear Russell, Donny, Linda and spouses,
I loved your Mom and remember her so fondly. The last time we came to Cottage Grove to visit Mom and Dad (Lenore and Stan Sterling), John and I went to visit your Mom. She still possessed herwarm and self-deprecating personality, able to remember me... and we shared stores. Lucille was one of the sweetest people I knew during my childhood in Monona. I will always remember her fondly and with love, as I will you, Donny and Linda (didn't have the chance to get to know Russell!). My folks are very sorry they can't attend her service; as youlikely know, Sherri's dad (Steve's wife) just passed and his service is this Friday up north - they are driving up, so keep you fingers crossed :)! Our hearts will be with you.
Love, Linda Sterling Hardham and John
