Debbie - I went past your moms house Saturday on the way out to the cemetery to put flowers on my momns grave and I said to my sister I wonder how Deb's mom is doing. Last I talked to you at the wedding she wasn't doing too good.
Then yesterday I sat in front on Kathy Gorla's mom at Church and I asked about Frances. I was so sad to hear she had passed. My prayers go out to you and your family, your mom was the GREATEST!
