Michael & Arlene,Not sure you will recognize me by my name, but I work at Binder Plumbing here in Decatur. I am the one who gave your Mother a ride out to the hotel while she had the work done at her home. I just wanted to express my deepest sympathy in the loss of your Mother. She was such a beautiful woman inside & out, and so kind. I often wondered how she was doing. May she rest in peace. My prayers to you both. Julie
Your Mother and I took water aerobics at the club together for many years. We always talked each day after the class as we readied ourselves for the day. We became friends sharing stories about our families. Yes, I heard many stories about you,Michael and Arlene, and bout her many visits to see you both. She was quite proud of her very intelligent children. I remember the broken bones , the lyme disease, the break-in, the car accident. Then, I began having allergic reactions to the pool water and ultimately had to leave the club and change to the Y. I lost touch with your Mom, but never forgot her. I called her once or twice but we didn't see each other anymore after that. I consider myself lucky to have known her and after reading her story I guess I didn't really know that much about her. It was the both of you that she spoke so often about. She loved you very much. You have my deepest sympathy.
