I'm sorry that I am unable to attend your mothers funeral. I wish to extend my deepest sympathy. Tom and I enjoyed talking with Hermina about years gone by.
Hi Mary, So sorry to hear about your Mom. There is one story that sticks out in my mind. When
I was in the 2nd grade. I got mad at Mom, and I packed my bag, with my PJs and a lunch. I ran away from home and walked over to your Mom's house. I walked into the house and she give a bowl of ice cream. Hermina and Mom were on the phone, I got to stay a hour or so and then I went home. I can't forget all her kindness to me and the Family. She will always be in our HEART.
She was my moms sister rosemarie n holeton and she will be missed . I have not seen her in awhile but she was nice ..dave and susan holeton
I will never forget her. She made me feel welcome from the time I first knew her back in the 40's.
The snowflake cookies she made.and all the good
baking. She always had the cutest smile and a wonderful sense of humor.
So sorry to hear that Hermina died. I haven't seen her since I was a child and use to come and visit with my Grandmother (Rosemarie Holeton ). My favorite memory was being able to spend time in her huge garden. Kelly Held ( Coleman )
