Mr. and Mrs. Stumphauzer were my first employers. I worked at the garden basket weekends planting flats, heading flowers, watering. The greenhouse was my favorite place in the world in the dead of winter, always springtime. I learned a lot from the Stumphauzers. They were truly wonderful people. Forever in my heart.
My condolences to the family of a wonderful mother.
What a beautiful lady - when my first son Todd was born I went to visit Mrs. Stumphauzer at her home. She immediately picked Todd up in her arms to give him a hug and a kiss....Kathy's little guy Tommy got jealous that his grandma was giving attention to another little boy and he came running to her and wanted her to pick him up also...........She started to laugh and scooped him up in her arms along with Todd. Here stood this tiny little lady with two bouncing little boys in her arms, giving them both kisses. Today, both those little boys stand way over 6 feet tall and I'm sure neither remember that day - but I do, because it made me feel so good watching her kiss my little boy along with her own grandson. She always made me feel welcome in her home and always had a kind word for me.
