Sending our condolences… A wonderful friend ….prayers for the family..
So sorry to hear this, what a wonderful lady she was. I remember when she talked my dad through “how to deal with girls starting their periods” when they worked together in Lapeer. (As a single dad, he appreciated that) She was a blessing. Keeping you all in my prayers.
Sending love to you and yours Heidi. So very sorry to hear of your Moms passing. Thinking of you all. Xoxo
Sending love, hugs and prayers out to the Johnson family. Marian always welcomed me into her family. I will miss her dearly and I am sending my condolences to the family. Mama Marian RIP.
