    Thanks Dee! We really appreciate keeping the memory of mom’s life alive. She was happy going out for pizza on her birthday or sometimes we’d go to Mimi’s Cafe. It was never anything extravagant. She preferred to keep it humble. Happy birthday Mom!

    As the traditional Roell Christmas Eve gathering fast approaches I think back to all the cigarette smoke that was inhaled by those who smoked and the few of us that didn’t. Margaret was the only sibling who drank ice water rather than an alcoholic beverage. She would sit back and listen,laugh alot at conversations going on,never added much just a smile. She will again be smiling down on us as we gather this year. She will have the best Christmas ever with Milt & Ella.

    Thanks Charlene. Reading your entry made me smile about my mom. I can just see her doing exactly those things. She definitely had that mischievous side to her.

    Charlene, thanks for opening a door to that part of her life that I didn’t know about. What you described sounds like my mom based on some of the notes she wrote in her high school yearbook. She seemed to enjoy having fun in high school. Stay well and God bless you and your family.

    Your mom and I became best friends when I transferred from McLane School in West Bend to Barton Grade School in Barton when my parents moved out to Lake Lenwood just before 8th grade. I was so upset that I had to leave McLane School where I had gone since Kindergarden. But as soon as I met your mom, we really became best friends and had such great times together. I loved going to her house which was totally “unconventional” to me….and that’s why I loved it so much. When she decided to “disappear” to get married, I promised her I wouldn’t divulge what she had done…..until Ella called me! By that time it was too late – she was married! I only got to see her a few times after that when I moved down to Milwaukee, but we always reminisced about the great mischief we got into. She made me play hooky for the first time in my life! And whenever I could get my dad to let me have the car for a short time, we’d take off for Cedarburg when all the cute guys were….. Well, maybe that’s not something you needed to know, but just thinking about it puts a smile on my face – and I’ll bet on hers! I don’t know the circumstances of her illness but am happy that she is out of pain and in the presence of God. My condolences to her entire family. Charlene (Crass) Brown

    Thank you Sharon and Vicki. Your words were very nice to read and brought back lots of memories. I remember spending a lot of time at your house with your family. I take peace in knowing that my mom had true friends like you Sharon. I know she is feeling no sickness or pain anymore and is smiling down on all of us.

    Sorry to hear about your mom. I hoped we would get connected again at some point, but I guess it wasn’t meant to be. We had lots of laughs together, drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes, solving all the world’s problems. There weren’t many rummage sales we missed and that made for great treasure hunting. The books Marg read about antiques helped with that also. She was an easy person to be with and I’ve missed her many times. I feel so bad that I won’t see her again. I’m happy for her that her suffering is over.

    Dear Mike, Becky and Brian–
    I have fond memories of your mom from when I was a little girl. My brother Randy and I would come over to your house with our mom when your mom and our mom would spend time visiting. Your mom was always so kind and loving. I was so sorry to hear of her illness and her passing. I’m sure she is in heaven with the Angels and Saints.

    I’ll keep you all in my prayers.
    Vicki Clark
