Dear Herb, We are sorry to hear of the passing of your sister, Best wishes to the Gustison family. God Bless.
Herb and family,
We were saddened to hear of your families loss. We know that the thoughts and prayers of many are with you.
Dear Herb and the rest of the family of Gustisons, I knew her very well and always wondered how she was doing since I have not seen her in years. I knew her good brother Tim too, a great guy he was. To bad she didn’t have the funeral at St. Rose, she was a great member there. She won my 1860 quilt in 1992 for the 100th anniversary of the parish. God rest her soul. Paul
