April 5, 2022 - one last thing

Journal entry by Teri Mattson (Ahrens) —

I just wanted to thank everyone who donated money in Mom's memory and share that all donations were split between Paynesville High School Athletics, Paynesville Lutheran Church and/or the Rose Center in Paynesville (per Mom's wishes).

I don't have everyone's addresses but wanted to formally say thank you to those I couldn't mail cards to. It's very kind and much appreciated. Teri
