I just learned that Mrs. Lott, a pillar in the community, passed away. My childhood memories include her walking from her house to her daughter's houses on Rio Grande and sometime stopping at the corner to talk to my mom. I'm sorry for your loss and pray God's blessings to the entire family during this time.

Gertrude,
You know she held a special place in my heart for these past twenty plus years. I shall miss those calls on the 8th of the month!!!
She was a special lady in many ways and
my first Silver Key client.
