Condolences & Memories (1 entries)

  • I was saddened to hear of Mrs. Freund's passing and my thoughts and prayers go out to Wendy and family. Mrs. Freund was a very warm and wonderful lady and I consider my life enriched for having known her. I still cherish some of the hand-made gifts received from her at Christmas years ago. The crocheted angel she made for my Christmas tree many years ago, is still the only tree topper I have ever used. I think of her fondly every year when I place the angel on the tree. - Posted by: Pam Canfield (Family friend) on: May 07, 2013
