July 25, 2018 at 11:26 amI worked with your mother many years ago when PMI was affiliated with Equifax and of course I took her birthing classes during my first pregnancy. I always enjoyed and appreciated her friendship. She was a lovely caring woman and will be missed. So sorry for your loss.

I did not know her, my husband worked with her son Don Slack many years ago.
I’m actually trying to find Don, so my husband can reconnect.
