I am so sorry to hear about your Mother. She was such a sweet and very pleasant Lady. We have shared a lot of fond memories growing up-as our next door neighbors with your Mom and all of your family. I send my love, thoughts and prayers. -Cathy Ghaffar

So sorry to hear about the loss of Grandma Jean Oskarsson. Hard to believe she is gone. I just realized that she was two days younger than my Mom...lol...if I get my butt kicked tonight while sleeping this will be why. She had a great smile and always had a great sense of humor also. She is back with her husband and I bet the two of them are cracking up the heavens.
