Condolences to the Family

February 11, 2023

Dear Donna and Ron,
I am so very sorry to hear of the passing of Gene, please accept my most heartfelt condolences. I have so many fond memories of Saturday morning visit’s with her in my mother’s beauty shop. So many laughs and giggles. And of course we were always under her watchful eye in the high school cafeteria. Please know that I’m thinking of you at this difficult time.
