Nana,

Thank you for teaching life’s lessons to your most attentive pupils; your family.

I am exceptionally proud to be part of the class of nineteen grandchildren. We were all fortunate to have such a mentor that instilled a sense of pride, respect of others, candor, and love of ones self, sense of humor, sportsmanship and love of God. You delivered it all and your lectures were legendary and your quick wit will be missed by all. My respect for you is immeasurable, my pride is immense and as a memeber of the Campbell graduation class I stand and raise my cap.

I will never forget your Love and Spirit.

Nana,
You lived your life the way you wanted and no one was going to tell you other wise. While living your life you inspired others to Learn, Love, and give of themselves. You taught me to wipe off my knees after falling and not to cry but, to continue on with my life and to work harder on what ever I chose in my life. You have inspired me in so many ways. I wan't to thank you for showing me what Love means in a family.
I Love you, and will miss you.
Love your Grandaughter,

Kristen and Mike Cowling
