We were neighbors with Thelma in the late '70's and I last saw her in the late 80's. Thelma was so much fun! We were both from Maryland and enjoyed talking about the words and phrases that we used coming from there. She was unique and very interesting. I send sincere condolences to Kathleen and Vickie.
