To Grundy family:
So to hear of Ramona ‘s passing. I would see her almost every day when I worked in Morrisonville.
This is wishing the family and friends a song in your heart, sunshine after the clouds, and a rainbow after the rain.
Sherry and Richard Hesterberg
Sorry to hear of your mother’s passing, I am sure you will truly miss her. She is in a much better place now.
