Mickey,
I want to extend my deepest sympathy to you and your family. I know this has been a difficult time and I hope you take the time to be with your family. The data center team misses you, but we will muddle through without you for awhile. Again Mickey, my deepest sympathy to you and your family.

She was a grand ole girl.
The kind of girl who survived it all and still managed to create fun .

Will always remember, years ago, when she went to the plastic surgeons office with me in Beverly Hills for outpatient surgery.. then took care of me after. May Johanna rest in peace
Love, Loretta

No words can express the feelings that one feels when a friend or a
love one leaves us. So we hold on to lifetime memories and there,
they live forever.
