  1. Just found this.. I am so sorry. She was a wonderful friend and a great pro-life supporter for Lyon County.

  2. I have been sorting through my aunt’s (Judy Inch nee Brown) things after her death, and trying to piece together names and correspondence. Now I know what Aunt Maxine looked like. I am Leah Brown (Pommier’s) Grand-daughter. I am sorry for your loss.
