Last week you printed the obituary of my sister Sally Rader. After the memorial was over and all of the out- of-town family and friends had left, I sat down in a quiet moment to reread the obituary and discovered to my dismay that in our grief, we had neglected to include Sally’s husband Robin Rader as preceding her in death. Robin’s memory is very much alive with our family and he was an important part of that last week of Sally’s life as we reminisced and she prepared to join him in the afterlife.
The family thanks everyone who has called, sent or offered their condolences in person. The celebration of her life was the perfect send off for Sally and a great comfort to us.
Sally’s Sister, Nancy Lander
