    So sorry for your loss, Jane. When my mom died I lost my best cheerleader! I’m sure you feel the same. You and your family are in my prayers.

    So sorry. I remember well her visits to RIS. We had her quilt of Manatees hanging in the school office for all to enjoy. Having her so many years was a gift.

    I have great memories of Muriel and Jane at Maid of Scandinavia in the early 1970s. My Mom is 97 and doing OK in a Memory Care Unit. My thoughts are with you and your family.
