I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your Mom. I did her hair for many years before my retirement last Feb.. I looked forward to her visits. She was a fun, happy person. Always with a smile on her face. She was easy to talk to and truly loved her family. And never looked or acted her age. She was very inspirational! Gerry Meicher

My heart was broken hearing about the death of your wonderful loving mother. She was always so good and kind to me and my children. I always intended to go visit but that is how intentions go. I will always remember her. With sympathy, Dani Sue
