I will never forget my “twin” Beth Stafford. We shared so much time together as we worked together at Trinity Lutheran Church. We shared a birthday…..same day, month and year ! I was born in Michigan and of course Beth in UK. My sympathy to each and everyone of you in the loss of your loved one. I’m sure you all have special memories that you will cherish.
