Messages of Condolence

Your Mom was a dear lifelong friend of my Mom, Elizabeth Niemi from Trochu, who spoke of Jean and Don often. She valued their friendship and loved hearing from Jean or having her visit. I recall being fortunate to have spent time in the company of your Mom in my younger years and remember her as a very kind and lovely lady, inside and out. I know that their annual letters to each other were greatly anticipated by my Mom, who passed away May 7, 2009. I offer my sympathy to you and your family, especially on behalf of my Mom.
