I know that Sally is Blessed to be in a better place, but know how hard it is for her family to have herr gone. I loved being able to see and talk with her each time I saw Mom. I have one of her Christmas dishes that I bought at Nordic Fest years ago. It is a favorite and love using it at the Holiday time. Loved seeing her beautiful artwork. My prayers and thoughts are with you at this time. This is the day the Lord has made, let us rejoice and be glad. At the end of the day May you Find Peac.
