    Donny, Denise, Darlene and family, my mom Elinor and I are so sorry for your loss. She was a great friend to my mom. They had lots of fun at bingos over the years, watching the Penn games and when they belonged to the hockey booster club together. They had had lots of laughs and fun and were there for each other. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers. Elinor Daugherty and Pam Stanley
