I have wonderful memories of your mother, my Tante Elly. She will be missed by many. I do see much of her in both her children. "What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal"(author unknown). Elly did so much for so many--it will be many lifetimes before her memory fades. May God comfort you at this time. We love you, Edith and Jeff.
