Collette,
You may not remember me; I used to manage 1550 LSD way back in 1990-1996. Fortunately for me, I DO remember your mother. What a woman she was! She loved life, air, water and anything else that she could grasp. I remember going to lunch at the Art Institute with her and talks about THE CAT(S)and how they loved to roam the neighborhood where you live. I remember the pies from Upper Wisconsin-Sister Bay and her return from these trips. Your mother loved to talk and also listen. It's too bad that with all the minutes in a day there is still never enough time to enjoy the actual time we might spend with people we care about. I hope that you continue to share in your mothers' love of life. My prayers are with you and your family at this time. God bless all of you.

Collette: I feel privileged to have known your mother. Her visits to my office were most enjoyable. She was a remarkable woman. Dr Ed LeMire
