April 18, 2023 at 10:17 amDear Hannula family I love you all so much. I did not know your grandmother, but I heard wonderful stories.I am holding you in my heart. You are good, fine and loving folks. I think you were blessed to have her and she was blessed to have you. I know you all bless me by being in my life, and carrying me as I walk through this hard transition time. What I am saying is, you are love. I am learning a song that say” Love stays loved and songs stay sung” What really matters goes on.

April 18, 2023 at 4:26 pmElinore was one of my mom’s favorite friends. They worked together for 10 years but met for lunch for 25 years more until Elinore moved to Florida. We last saw Elinore at her 90th birthday party. Maurice did remodeling work for us. I’m happy she had such a long, healthy life.
