“Saddened by this news. Shirley always made Mike and i feel welcomed when we came to the deer lease. Many special memories of those days. I know God will take good care of her in heaven. Wish I had found out in time to attend her service and give Jerry a big hug. Strength ahead for the difficult days to come. Love, Melba Lebredo”
