    My sincere condolences to the family. Rennetta was a friend of my mother’s (Ruth C. Davis) and I still remember my mom talking about her friendship with Rennetta. Those two were wonderful ladies and will be missed.

    My condolences to Barb and the family. Mrs. Johnson was like a second mother during our Junior High years. I always remember her to be a lovely lady. Barb, if you get this I would love to see you after all these years. I live in Noblesville and work at Conner Prairie – so we must be close to each other.
    With heartfelt sympathy,
    Emma
