Dear Family of Alma, Marion and I send our condolences. Barbara Rackers sent us Alma’s obit. I am the oldest daughter of Henry and Elisabeth Taube. How my parents loved Alma and John and played many hands of cards with them. Marion and I enjoyed stopping in to see Alma when we were in the Taos area. She always had us sit down to a cup of coffee and cookies..then showed us her ‘picture wall’. Again, our sympathy to the family. Love and prayers Caroline
