Steve, I just learned of your mom’s passing from Harriet Terry. Your mom was such a great woman. I worked summers during high school with her at the Employment Service and she was always so kind and helpful to me.
God bless you for taking care of her so faithfully – you obviously inherited her kind heart!

Best to you my friend, and take comfort in her memoery and in knowing she is in heaven with her family!
Steve so sorry for lost , my mom died august 16 th .. i went to see your mom in subacute couple of times.. i will miss her ..
Steve, your Mother was absolutely precious and such a graceful lady. She was so kind to all of us Landwehr’s, and I will forever be grateful for her warmth. She will be welcomed to the Heavens by may angles, and there is likely a silly hat waiting for her from her sisters.
Loved the collection of pictures, and the beautiful memories.
