Ardith Lorene Burkhart Rehfeld passed away on October 7, 2011 at 5:55pm (CST).
Hospice care made it possible for Ardith to stay at home with family until her passing.
I spoke with Rod this morning and he is doing as well as could be expected.......... Actually better because it is obvious to me that Rod and Ardith's religious faith and conviction made Ardith's passing a gentler process.
Please feel free to join and log onto
