    I was sorry to read of your mother’s passing in the Crawfordsville paper. I did not know her, but my mother Frances Montgomery Durr went to school with her at Mulberry. Before her death in 2009, she lived with me for 9 months. Several times she talked about “Donna Rex” and wondered where she was. She had very fond memories of her childhood friend. I am sorry that we did not know where she was living or we would have tried to visit with her. You have my deepest sympathy on her passing.

    I was so sorry to read that your Mother had passed away. I had to go with my son to a doctor appointment at 1:30 in Carmel and was unable to attend her calling. I always loved seeing her and all of her girls when I was working at the manor. Of course I remember when you lived down the road from us and always felt a close friendship with your family. And Eastern Star was close to all of our hearts!! My thoughts and prayers will continue for the family in coming days and weeks. She certainly will be missed. Love Jeanie Dunn Thompson
