This woman was a great mother to me. My mother died when I was 5. She was a great influence to me. I loved the many many times she and I had one on one conversations. On her 90th birthday party. I told her how much I loved her and thanked her for being my mom through the years. She and I could talk about anything. A very talented woman with a wealth of knowledge. Ted, Faith, RoseAnn, and Ross. I know you will miss her. But she is with her love of her life now, Ted Whitaker. Who has been waiting and preparing for this day. To be reunited. Love you, Mom

Dear RoseAnn and Family,
Your Mom was an angel here on earth. She was so special and I loved being able to visit with her at some of the baby showers and birthday parties.
She sure loved her family.
She will be deeply missed but is now free of suffering and pain. What a joyous reunion she must be having with your Dad and other loved ones who have gone before.
May you find strength in your memories and in knowing you will see her again one day. Remember what I told you before.......it's not goodbye. It is only goodnight.
We love you and pray that you will be comforted during this difficult time.
Love,
Chris & Paula Haacke
