To Sherry, Lita and all your family: I send you my heartfelt condolences, and want you to remember all the good times we had when your mom helped us with our German Club dinners. She gave her time for us, and though I always gave her ‘Danke Schn’s, I want you to know how much she helped us. I just saw her a few weeks ago at the library, and she gave me updates on you and your lives now. Keep your spirits up. Love, Frau B.
Sherry, Our thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family. We offer our deepest condolences for your loss. Know that if you or your family need anything, we are here for you. Your Lockheed Martin Threat Team
I had moved away and just found out that Edna had passed away. I graduated from High School in 1992. She was so helpful to me during my High School years and helped keep me on track to graduate my senior year. I really had no one at that time except Edna to talk to. She was a wonderful person and I will always remember her as a Mother figure. Charles Coslett
My “other mother”.
