I was so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. I enjoyed working with her at Buehlers many years ago. Your dad would always talk about her. I felt she loved being home for her family. May memories give you peace.

It was such a pleasure to do Dolly’s hair for so many years, (and Glen’s hair, as well.) Dolly loved telling me all about her family, as she loved you all so very much! My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
