She also was both her and Orlan were the best neighbors we had for over 40 yrs, we were so blessed to have such wonderful people for our neighbors, we think of that beautiful garden that Tom and Orlan would raise, I would can green beans, and so did Jeanne, we had a wide variety of veggies there, and both of u loved it too. So may God bless Orlan and his family, give them peace, strength, and healing in the days, weeks, and months ahead.
