So sorry for your loss. Your mother was a great comfort to me when I visited my mom at Good Shepherd. She is at peace now. Prayers are with you all.
Your mother was one of the original, dedicated members of the Altar Society. She sewed so many things for the church: baby bibs for baptisms, numerous potholders & many, many other items. We’re still using the tablecloth she made In the dining room at OLSD. She cooked & worked Fish Fries religiously & helped can our famous pickles. She will not be forgotten at our church. Please accept my sincere condolences .
I’m sorry for your loss. Your mother was a classmate at Wheeling Hospital School of Nursing.
Bill, so sorry for your loss. Praying for you and your family.
