Please accept my deepest sympathy. I kept in touch with "Aunt Deen" even after Fred passed away. She was a very gracious lady and I am glad to have known her.

Love and prayers to all,

Hello to Bernadine, Marggie and Wally,

Your mother was so special. We lived across the street at 107 Church. My name is Mary Lou Haldeman Shank Mueller. Sounds like she had a wonderful family. I guess I know Bernadine and Marg the best, and have only good memories of you both. I’m sure you know you were lucky to have her all these many years, but somehow it’s never enough time. We lost Mom at age 84 from Alzheimer’s and I still wish I could talk to her again! Give each other a hug from me. I’m 71 years old now. My first husband died at age 53 but Carl has helped me survive until now. Hope you guys are supporting each other and know that I’m thinking of you all. Lots of love,

Mary Lou

Margie: I am so sorry to read about your mom’s passing. I’ll always remember those mornings when I would walk to your home and then back to St. Mary’s for school. Your mom was a very special person. You, Bernie and Wally are in my thoughts and prayers.

Carol Heckel Jacoby

Bernadine, Marg, and Wally,

We send our condolences.  I remember the times I was at your house.  We would sit on the porch playing games for hours, watching the cars go by, and solving problems.  Your Mother was great to let me visit so often.  She will be missed.
