    Diane and Doris,
    I am sorry to read of the passing of your mother. She was always very kind to me when Duane invited me to stay over and when I used to see her at the bowling alley. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.

    Our most sincere sympathy on the passing of your mom, Doris. She would always be at church for our Saturday evening service at St. Matthew. Your family was held up in prayers this past Sunday morning. I pray you all find peace in knowing she is with her Savior. Jan and Bruce Etzel
