On my first day of work September 6th, 1973 at the Queen's Printer, Redena was the first person who I set eyes on and she was my coffee buddy and friend the whole time I worked there. Always ready to listen. Her social activities kept all of us together as a giant family. We lost contact for a time but even though we did that did not stop her from sending me a surprise wedding gift. So thoughtful. She has a special place in my heart. Condolences to you Lavern and your family. - Posted by: Pat Stadelmeier (Friend and coworker at Queen's Printer) on: Oct 21, 2016
