Ron,
I enjoyed working with your Mom at Brazos. She kept me a float all those good old days before things change. We had our great times at Central UMC before my beloved wife & I moved to Grapevine in 2001. She passed away on March 1, 2021 & was buried in Dallas.
Take care & May God Bless You.
Steve Rosentreter of Grapevine
