Alberta in Heaven

TO OUR BELOVED FAMILIES & FRIENDS ---
Our family fondly remembers Alberta
wearing her crimson velvet and pink gown. She
was the belle of the ball at our Elm Grove Club
formal dances.
Welcome word has reached us that the
Tequesta Council and Village Manager will meet
with the memorial committee of three former
Mayors -- Carlton Stoddazd, Elizabeth Schauer
and Carl Hansen -- to finalize the proposed
Tequesta Memorial honoring citizens who con-
tributed so much to make Tequesta a community
of serene beauty.
Christmastime is a fitting period to recognize
such gainful and memorable achievements by
beloved residents of Tequesta.
We have designed Golden Plaques easily
affixed to marble panels at the spacious semi-
circular portico extending our beautiful new Village
Hall. Its neatly tiled roof covering the lazge semi-circle
stage will provide cool shade for families to sit in a
place of reverence and remembrance of their loved
ones.
We have created a Golden Plaque for Alberta,
our "Angel of Love". Its words :glorify her great
national fame --
Alberta Hoppe S~r;oddazd
1910 - 2002
National 4-H Health Champion
State President of Iowa 4-H Girls
We love her still and always will.
Our esteemed Stoddazd Family Trustee, our eldest
son Allan Michael Stoddard, has made severa1900-mile
trips to Tequesta from his and wife Mary Lou's lovely
home in Williamsburg, Va. He drove down here again
for a happy 4-day visit with us the week following
Thanksgiving.
The picture of him above with a loving arm
around his beloved mother Alberta tells more eloquently
than words how reverently we remember her.
We look forward with pleasure to Christmas week
when our loved son Dr. Randall Roger Stoddard and wife
Sarah will be flying from Hawaii to visit us.
With our warmest love,
Carlton & Taffy II ~~~~
