  1. You will probably not recognize my name but I am writing to say I am sorry for your loss. My mother, Dorothy Vanest Arterburn, was a bowling companion of Mildred’s in their younger years. My mom is gone now, too, but I wanted you to know she always spoke highly of Mildred and enjoyed their times together. Sharon
