We are praying for all of the family during this time of loss and adjustment. Prayers from all of us at Laurie and John's church- Open Door Fellowship.

Dear Laurie, John and all the family, we were so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. Roberta told me a lovely story about her last week, after we heard the news. She said that Barbara McQueen came and stayed for some days after Ted Gulliksen passed, with Roberta. Roberta didn't want to do anything or see anyone, and Barbara was there to make meals and field visitors. She stepped in and stepped up when there was someone in need. We didn't know your Mom really at all, but it was so nice to hear from someone who did, what kind of person she was. What a blessing to have such a mother as that. You are all in our prayers. Sending love, Nancy and Eric.
