Dear Cindy, Jesse and family- I was so sorry to hear of your grandmother, Bertha's, passing. She was a lovely lady and always so kind when I would speak to her and your mom when we would bump into each other while shopping. What a blessing to have had her for 101 years! Please know that you and your family are in my prayers--but we all know where Mrs. Carson is playing the piano with the angels.
To all of Bertha's family & friends, We are so sorry to hear of her passing. What a truly wonderful person she was! We know that you will all greatly miss her. She left an amazing legacy with her family & with all the students she taught over the many years of her teaching career. Ron even remembers having her as his teacher in 2nd grade. You all know how sweetly she touched our lives in 2011! We are forever appreciative to her & her family & we offer you our condolenses. We will keep you all in our prayers during this very sad & difficult time. Sincerely, Sherry & Ron Ridgeway & family
