What a sweet, sweet lady! I often wonder how our world will succeed without her generation. They are the strongest, hard working, faithful generation ever. I know she has wanted to go for some time and be with Al and now she is there and happy. Thoughts and prayers to all her precious family! May she fly with the angels that she has been seeing. A great loss but a wonderful ending. And, she embroidered the best dish towels ever.
Hugs!
