Dear Joe and Jean,
Were you not blessed to have your cute Mom for a
100th birthday until the Lord took her home?
Remembering all your fun times together must be so
helpful at this time.
May the Lord comfort you in the way He can only do.
Our love and prayers to long time friends.

Dear Jeannie and Joe,
Elizabeth and I just happened to be In Columbus this past
weekend and bought a Dispatch and read about the passing of
your dear mother. As you probably remember, Jeannie, your
parents were great friends of my parents, and I recall their words
of encouragement when they would see me at our home on
Bridge Night or at Maple Grove. Your Dad would always greet
this gawky teenager with "Hi Handsome" and your Mom would
just smile....always a smile! Our thoughts and prayers are with
you and your family. Take care, Doug
