Remembering Another Wonderful Mother

 Now that some difficulties have been ironed out, it seems appropriate to memorialize another outstanding mother of one of our classmates.  That remarkable matron is Leona Steen, (https://www.rudesfuneralhome.com/obituary/leona-steen),  and mother of Teresa. The expressions of sympathy expressed by Teresa's classmates verify Leona's outstanding qualities, and reflect on her life better than anything  that I could write.  Our condolences and prayers go out to Teresa and her family at this difficult time.

This Is Only A Test

 Recently, our home computer, on which most of these posts are written, died.  It was using an older version of Windows, and was no longer supported by Microsoft.  This post is being typed on a small, hand-held Lenovo tablet.  This device is rather slow and awkward to use for this purpose.  Until changes are made, this may be the last post in a long while. 

 One positive item, though, is that the Brookings Register had a nice article about Margaret Denton, Mark's mother, who is 94 and has been a member of a privileged women's organization for some 75 years, which is half of the lifetime of that organization's existence.  The name of the organization escapes me at the moment, but if one goes to the Register's website fairly soon, one can read the article before it is taken down. Don't know how to post a link to the story on this device, but will try various strategies to remedy the situation.  Any advice or suggestions would be most appreciated. https://brookingsregister.com/article/75-years-of-service 

After trial and error, success may have been achieved.  The above is the link to the Register tribute to Mrs. Denton.  Congratulations to a wonderful mother.
