Dear Rick,
I’m so sadden about your Mother’s passing. I’ll never forget, she taught me how to sew. She was such a good lady.
She’s now in heaven with Nancy. Thoughts and prayers to you.

Dear RIck, I’m so sorry to hear about your mom’s passing. For some reason she crossed my mind today and I discovered this obit. I’m sure by now she & my parents – Betty & Harold Monske – have hooked up and are laughing together once again. I know she & my mom were like sisters, and used to spend hours on the phone before my mom got sick. Mom’s been gone since 2014 and we lost dad last August. Hope you can find comfort in your happy memories of a life very well lived.

Rick, I’m very sorry to hear about your mother’s passing. I just discovered it when I was out at the cemetery today. Our mothers were very good friends. Wish I could have been at the service.
