Good Morning. It’s Friday, June 24, 2022
There are two memorial services on Saturday that I’m sure readers have noticed — Merry Rath and Cheryl Kloewer. I knew them both and just wanted to offer my condolences to their families. Merry left us in 2021 but remains in our thoughts. Cheryl, known as GG, passed away last weekend. She was at my wife’s baby shower five years ago here in Philomath and she was always a friendly face from her spot in the bleachers at basketball games.
Thanks for reading!
