    "I have many fond memories of Selma as we have known each other since childhood. In 1946 I married her brother, Lawrence Johnson, who passed away in 2005. Our families enjoyed many years of companionship." Thank you. Esther Johnson

    We knew Selma from the days when our daughters were in View Ridge grade school and she was also a campfire mother and we had several fun overnight trips together. Our 2 daughters are still in contact with daughter Janice. We send our deepest sympathy to the family and have fond memories of good visits together.

    Dearest Selma was Bob's first secretary with the March of Dimes in Seattle in 1964. When we married in 1971 we made a home next door to Selma and Bill in Edmonds, WA. Selma and Bill taught us to dig, clean, and prepare razor clams during many trips to Pacific Beach, WA. We also shared wonderfully productive attached vegetable gardens. When they moved to the golf course in Skagit County we visited often enjoying their life-style change with them. Selma was kind, generous, loving, and caring for all whom she met. Her family was her pride and joy. We extend to them our deepest condolences at her passing. Take heart in knowing that she and Bill are together again enjoying their 5:00 p.m. martini as it should be! May it be a comfort to you to know that your loss is shared, Bob and Susan

    thanks for all of your comments. They bring back great memories of Selma. We know that Bill has been waiting for Selma for 3 years now, probably with a piece of chicken in his pocket for her to cook for him.
