I’m so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. Please share my sorrow and condolences to the family. I’m sorry I wasn’t able to make the services and hope you all understand. Your mom was a kind lady but strong. Like your Mom, your Dad,was a favorite of many; both always had a smile and a joke to be told. There was always laughter present. Take care and again, my sympathy to you all. Stay strong and support one another now and in the future because no matter how we look at things, present and past, family is what makes us all as one.
Leland and Ellen Leingang and family.
