Dearest Michael & Family, Sending my deepest sympathy to all of you. I never met your mother but I did know a lot about her through Michael and she sounded like a great lady. I'm thinking of you. Love, Karma Barber

I wish to offer my sympathy to Rell's family. She was a good neighbor, friend and associate in American Legion Unit 889, Waymart, Pa. We have missed her dearly since she moved from our community. Helen Martzen, Unit Treasurer.

My condolences to Rell Walsh's family. You must be proud of such a caring, loving LADY. She was always there for whoever needed her special loving touch and caring words. She had such a special gift. I was one who needed her, and she came knocking. The last time was shortly after Jack had passed. I told her she shouldn't be driving. I worried until she was at home. When she was last in Waymart, she called and asked if I would pick up cough syrup as she was ill? Also a few days prior, I offered her a ride as she was walking to the store to buy an onion. She was making hamburgers for the evening meal for Mrs. Bishop. She was so special for so many people. My sympathy is extended to all of her family. Alberta Costantino

I met Rell when she was a roommate of my aunt in Warren Hospital back in March. What a sweet and caring person she was. My aunt was very ill and Rell would be looking out for her and would let me know what was happening when I was not there. We spoke several times by phone after that as she called to see how my aunt was doing. I only wish I could have known her for a longer period of time. She was a lovely lady. Susan Senderling

Her service to our hospital and our community tells the heart of one who loved life and lived to help serve others. May you be comforted by knowing that she touched the lives of so many during her 90 years of living well. Sincerely, Shirley Krol, President of Aux. 1996-1998
