Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
For about thirteen years I worked in the Reading Office of Wichita State University. At that time, Edith served the secretarial needs of three/four other faculty members who would make requests of her. Her efficiency reflected accuracy and was done in good humor. We celebrated by going out to eat on our birthdays long after we had both retired. She was a true friend.
May Gods love be with you as you grieve in the loss of your mother.
Shelley and family–thinking of you and yours in the loss of your mother. Our love and prayers.
