Hi Don and Dave, What a surprise to see your Mom’s obit in the paper this morning. My sincere sympathy. No matter how long and well a parent lived, it’s still a big deal to have to say good by. to one’s Mom or Dad.
Your Mom and Dad’s names were very much household words as I grew up and I knew they were people my folks liked and cared about. And, of course, since you two got to spend quite a bit of your summer time with your Mom’s.folks in Platteville, we got acquainted, too.
Since your Mom’s ashes will come to Platteville (I’m at the home place here), if you’re planning any time here, it would sure be fun to get to visit and catch up a bit – maybe have lunch – I’ll buy! Let me know..
Best regards, and, again, my sympathy in the loss of your Mom.

Gilly….I think of you often but now more than ever….you have lost someone dear to you…..may you find peace in you fondest memories….
Sincere sympathy, Nan Walrath
