    Dea Linda Sue,
    I was checking google for family members and saw the obituary for your mom. I am so terribly sorry for you loss. She certainly lived a long life. But I know you must miss her. My heart goes out to you and your family.

    Was she living in Columbia near you?

    Your cousin, Jan Miller O’leary

    Jan,
    What a nice surprise to hear from you. Mom had been living in Columbia for about 7 years, the last 2 with us. She had gone downhill and developed dementia. In December she broke her hip and we moved her to a nursing home but she never came home.
    If you ever need to contact me my e-mail is lscoffman72@yahoo.com. Hope you and your family are all well. Linda
