Bruce and family, I’m so sorry that I didn’t connect that your mom was Loretta Pittillo. She and Clyde were good friends of my family, George and Eloise Rice. Please apologize to everyone for none of my family being at her memorial service. Mom is just now able to go to funerals since dad passed and had I realized who your mom was we would have been there. I know she and Clyde are rejoicing in heaven and celebrating being together again. We are losing too many loved ones, however they are all in heaven singing, picking and listening to the heavenly choir and musicians. May your memories comfort you and knowing we will see them again.
