Dear Dawn, Lee, Larry and families,
Aunt Janny and I send your our condolences on the passing of your Mom. I will never forget Mickey's sharp sense of humor and 'tell it like it is' approach. She always tried her best to keep Dawn and myself in line; most of the time we actually managed to behave! What a strong woman she was and so very committed to her wonderful familiy. You are all on our minds.
Much love, Sue Ingram Mackey (Calgary, Alberta) and Janny Stephenson (Washington Oakes, Everett).
