I was very sorry to hear of Gertrude's passing, she and Leon were good friends of my parents, Grace and Earl Greenshield. After mother could not drive anymore, I would take her to visit Gertrude and she always looked forward to seeing her old friend. I will remember her fondly. Janis Greenshield Troutt
