    My condolences to all, Danny and Mary Jo. We have been through a lot but I still consider you like a brother and sister. Sorry I cannot make it in person.

    I will try and see you both next time I am in Minnesota.

    Dear Mary Jo and Danny,
    I am so sorry to hear of your loss. Your Mom was such a sweet lady. I fondly remember all of you growing up in Rogers. I wish I would have been able to attend the funeral but I will not be there because one of my daughters is having a C Section.

    I will keep you in my prayers.

    The years have passed so fast since the Whitefords and Heinens spent so much time together. And what memories I have of Noreen since our years together in high school. Thinking of you at this time. Joan
