    Deepest sympathies for the Templin family. My fondest memories of her was ice skating with her brother. She had a sweet heart and always had a smile on.

      Thank you so much for reaching out. Jeanette just told me that she received your Christmas Card! Gretchen always had positive things to say about you. This time of the year was the best for it is when they got cards and shared news with each other. The rest of the family is in good health and all still working. Gretchen was very blessed to have you in her life. Amy Alpaugh (sister).
