On behalf of The Auxiliary of Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War, I wish to extend deepest sympathy to Greta's family, and to Bill as well. Greta was a delightful lady, her smile and laugh will be greatly missed. She has been an active member of the auxiliary for the last few years, and her help with our activities were always enthusiastic and always cheerful. We will remember her fondly.
