CONDOLENCES
From: Judy Louk
Relation: Friend
Today I say goodbye to not only a former co worker but a close friend. We
Were bingo buddies and although we couldn't attend bingo after Margaret
entered the nursing home we still kept in touch and I would stop to see her
when I returned from Arizona each spring. I have many many wonderful
memories from our friendship and will carry them with me always.
