  • Alma was a dear friend during the years we lived in Richland. We worked together on numerous committees at Redeemer Lutheran. If I’m not mistaken, she and my mother worked together at the Richland Laundry in the 1940s. Alma as a true Child of God’s and you can smile knowing she’s in His loving arms now. May God bless each of you.
