We will be having a memorial in Burlington for her sometime hopefully end of September, early October.
Kevin just informed me of Birthe’s passing. I hope you are well. My husband and I have been living in Lake Ozark for 9 years. Again, I sure am sorry about Birthe. Such a nice lady. Hope kids are well.
