Please accept Pam and my sympathy at the loss of your dear mother. I fondly recall her contributions to making afternoon lunch for the men during haying and silo filling seasons. She was a great neighbor and friend to my grandparents, Joe and Laura Wunderlin. Thank you as well for attending the wakes and funerals of all our families. God bless you as you bid your mother farewell until you are once again joined with your mother, dad and loved ones.
