My sincere sympathy,
Memorial Tree was purchased for the family of Janet Green by Tina Arrowood (Chase Bank).
Jan was a wonderful person and I always looked forward to visiting with her at our Quilt Guild. I was lucky enough to buy one of her quilts at her rummage sale and will treasure it. Her daughter, Debbie, longarm quilted it for her.
