  1. I am so heartbroken from this news she was a special person I will always remember the good old days of IGA forever in my heart

  2. To the editors and staff at Wawa News. Well done on adding “Roberta’s” picture in uniform. I know she was a very proud member, and all she ever talked about was her days with the legion.
