Mitch, Marcia, Marvin, Lora, & Sylvia. I’m so sorry for the loss of your mother. I just saw the obituary in today’s Sidney Daily News. My prayers are with you all.

I know I had posted my feelings on Facebook, But I wanted, again, to say how sorry I have for your loss. ML was my friend and the best neighbor I ever had. One of my great memories was on one of our first shopping trips when she turned me on to my first Latte at a coffee shop at Northland Mall in Columbus Ohio. She couldn’t believe I never had one and was excited to buy me my first one. I loved her very much and I will cherish the memories forever.
