    We are very sorry for the loss of your Mother, She was a great neighbor when we live in the trailer court. I wish Brenda and I could come up
    but we now live in Noblesville, and I don’t drive that much anymore. Our prayers are with you and your family. The only thing I can say i know where is up there with your Dad, and he was there waiting on her with open arms.
