We've never met, but my mom, Frankie Komer, has wonderful memories of both your mother and father. When we received a call from Kay Quinlan this weekend informing us of your mom's passing, it was a sad occasion. When I think of the good times those close friends had for so many years, I know it made my mom's life much happier. My mom is still with us, living in Atlanta, and I do not look forward to telling her in person of Mary Jo's death. Our prayers are with you; you had wonderful parents and can take great joy in knowing they had truly a blessed life.
