    What a grand lady! Alberta is home at last in her heavenly home. I was privileged to know her at a school where she served as Foster Grandparent; in fact, the oldest Foster Grandparent in the Fremont/Omaha area during the 2 or 3 years she served. She was dedicated and loving to the children. Later our paths crossed again as we studied God's Word together in Bible Study Fellowship. She knew and lived God's Word. What a joy to know her!
