Dear Donna and family. I just discovered that today that your Mother passed away on the 14th. I am so sorry for your loss. My condolences to you. I will keep all of you in my prayers and hope the kind memories will bring you peace. I had developed some health issues in the past few months and could not get out to visit like I did in the past, so I lost track of her. Rest in peace Myrtle. She is now with Tom.
