Condolences to the Family

Condolences to Lori, David, and family.  I was acting director of the Lititz Community Center in the late 60s when Doris was our secretary.  She was resourceful and dedicated to the Community Center and the people of Lititz.  She and my wife, Ann, co-directed the Lititz Senior Citizens for several years before we left the Lititz area.

Lori, David and family, we have been out of town and reading the Lititz Record found that your mom has passed away.  We are so sorry, what a wonderful and fun person she was, always a big smile for everyone.  So sorry we had not seen her in awhile, but thought of her often.  Please know we are thinking of all of you and keep you in our prayers.  Love to all, Flick and Shirley
