Nancy, Chuck & Family

As I have just lost my Mother, my heart is in the same place. This is the time to reflect on the great memories, great times and to look forward to the beautiful babies that keep the Family growing and know that your mother is the essence of the future and she will be remembered.

Mary, I don't know if you'll remember me, but I went to Bennett HS with you. I recently lost my mom as well. I'm so sorry. I know how tough it is.

as a child of one of Aunt Dot's best friends, i have many memories of both Fred and Dot, mom and dad playing card games every week.
this was followed by what a lot of people knicknamed the "widows club." as their husbands past away mom, Aunt Dot, Janette, Del, followed by friends who joined togeather to play a great game called skipbo.
she will be missed by those she left behind, and loved forever for the things she did in her life; and for her friends (and in some cases for their children afterward.)
