Betty,
I saw this on the internet in the Des Moines paper this morning. I worked with you at Sears many years ago. I noticed that Charlene Hedberg died also. She worked with us at the same time. We live in Green Valley, Arizona now.
Wow! What a long life your husband had! And 62 years of marriage!
Our sincere sympathy to you and your family.
