We want to send our condolences to Thelma’s family. We enjoyed the time that we had with her as our neighbor here at Meyers Meadow. We had some good visits. Ken and Donna McConaughy
Dear Janet, I’m so sorry about your lovely Mom. I missed it in the paper or I would have been to the visitation. You had such a beautiful Mother, she was always so pretty. I remember the times we went out with her and Dale, oh the laughs we had. She really kept the conversation going and a lot of laughs. I can still hear her laugh…. Just know that you are in my thoughts during this difficult time. I know how difficult this is for you… With my sincere sympathy, Annamae Baker
