[or-roots] Schmidt Nursery & stationery

[Diane]

I never lived in Portland, but J. Frank Schmidt is a huge nursery business
in the Portland area.  He is a cousin to my husband.  Have never met the
gentleman, but he sure does raise some wonderful plants.

I love the stationery that several of you are using, but my phone lines are
so very slow and it takes forever to down load messages.  So, could you just
pay your respects with words?  Thanks so much.  We have many men and women
who have served and are serving in the Armed Forces from this family also.
They have my deepest respect and constant prayers for their safety and well
being.
