That is sad news. How long had she been the house mother?

Is the date correct? Does she mean February 1st?

How sad. I will keep her family and the GA collegians in my prayers.

I think it is February. December 1st was a Saturday. I received it today.

I don't know how long she was HM. I met a very nice lady a few years ago when some of the Atl. Alumnae Chapter went to the house.

I think she was in a sorority but I can't remember which one.

Yes, it was February 1. I received an email about it as well.

Hugs to our Gamma Alpha sisters and the house mother's family.

Oh my gosh!!! She was so nice. We will miss her

By the way, this was only her second year as our house mother. Our last house mother had to leave because her sister was really sick and she needed to take care of her.
