We were so sad to hear of this! We always looked forward to seeing her every week. May she rest in His arms! May her road always rise…and may her family find peace in His grace.
Cliff and Leone were lifelong friends of my parents in Eau Claire. I have many great memories of them and Mike as I was growing up. Blessings to the family.
