Patty Sue, Bob, & Susan, so sorry about your mother I have thought of her often. She was such a wonderful lady. I remember many times stopping by and it never failed she had some good food to eat, and no was not an answer for her to here.
May she rest in peace, she is happy and at peace now.

Bob, Doris and I are very sorry to hear of the loss of your mom. Out thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I am in South Dakota until Sunday nite so We will not be able to attend the services. Maybe we can get together and catch up in the neat future. Freddie
Susan, Patty, Bob and families, Deepest sympathy at the loss of your Mother. She was such a special lady! I have no doubt that she is being cradled in the arms of Jesus - no more illness, pain or grief of any kind. You, your families and friends will grieve her passing but only because you loved her and will miss her. You can be thankful and joyful that her suffering is now over. Much love to you and yours.
Patty, Susan & Bob - we are so sorry for the loss of your mother. She was always a sweet lady, and a joy to talk to when I visited my mother at the nursing home several years ago. Will keep you all in our thoughts and prayers.
Susan, Patty and Bobby...so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your families.
Patty, Susan, Bob, and families: I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. I won't be here Saturday to personally pay my respects but know that you are on my mind and in my prayers for God's peace and comfort to cover your family.
