    Wow ….. John Bell! Thank you very much for you kind thoughts and words of my Mom.
    I’m sorry I didn’t notice or look on this site earlier. We just had her Ohio celebration of life last weekend May. 22, and it was a really nice tribute to her.
    I hope you are doing well. I keep in contact with a few people from our past ( mainly Rich Youngblood, Margaret Weikel and Sherry Goodrich )
    and we all have wondered how you’re doing and where you’re at these days?
