Guestbook
My deepest sympathy to you, Jean, and your family upon reading of your Mother’s death in the St. Cloud Times. My Mother, Harriet Seep will be 96 years old on Easter Sunday, April 8th. She recently fell and broke her right arm just below the shoulder and is now in rehab for her arm at the nursing home. We hope to get her back to her assisted living apartment soon.
I don’t know if Dave & Steve remember when we were kids at Calvary Baptist Church together. I still keep in touch with Bruce Johnson, Joyce (Mauseth) Johnson and Ann (Isakson) Wollenburg. It would be fun to see you at one of our reunions, Jean. I have such fond memories of working with you on “The Tech” newspaper Again, our thoughts and prayers are with you during this sad time.
