Wahoo, NE Thursday, January 29, 2009 Sue, Cathy, Carol, Bob, Shelly, Bryan, Scott, Eileen and families. I am so sorry to hear about your Mom. She was an awesome person, who had alot of patience. The memories are something you will always treasure, dear to your hearts, as well as my families heart. I remember the story when my mom dropped me on my head when I was little and she ran over to see MaryJo because she was in a panic and didn't know what to do. MaryJo told my mom that 2 aspirins and a bottle would do the trick. Not for me! But for my Mom! God Bless All of You and Your Families.Jim Chrisman and Lori Carlson
