I was saddened to see the death notice of your mother and my friend, Sara. I first met her in 1980 as an employee at Clover Bottom, and later worked with her on Boards and volunteer committees. Serving as a guardian/ conservator representative for many from CBDC, Sara would laugh and say she wanted me to be her conservator. We shared many great laughs!

Sally, I tried to come by and went to the wrong place--a Roesch-Patton on Church Street in Brentwood instead of Franklin Pike. I am so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a special lady!
