To The Family:
I’m so very sorry to hear of your mother’s passing. She taught me music and language arts at Lancaster, MO in the mid-1950′s. We traveled many times together to music contests. She was so much fun and lived life to the fullest. I knew Billy when he was two years old–a lifetime ago. It has been a pleasure corresponding with Anita and keeping up with your mom’s health status. I loved the phone conversations with your mom when she was able. Her mind was bright, and her sense of humor immeasurable. I am so lucky to have known her.
