Vern, Rex, Neva, Mark, Nancy and families - I was so sorry to hear of the loss of your wife and mother. She was a wonderful person, always gracious, caring and so interesting. She was so proud of all of you and obviously thrived on the time she was able to spend with her family and her children's friends. Please accept my deepest sympathy as you face the days ahead without her. She lived a wonderful life, made even more special to her by each of you. Take comfort and strength in the memories of time with her. Thinking of you at this time and sending prayers your way.

I'm so sorry for your loss - I will always remember you Mom as the VERY Patient 4-H leader for a group of unwieldy juniors. I also remember her incredible tolerance for the science projects, cooking projects and other hair brained schemes Nancy and I got ourselves into! I am sorry for your loss and hope you are comforted by the many wonderful warm memories of such a caring mother.

To Vernon, Rex, Neva, Mark, Ellen and your families, and also for Sarah's brothers and sisters and their families. My thoughts and prayers are with you as you reflect on the the life of this very special person- wife, mother, and sister. Although I cannot be with you physically, I am with you in spirit. You have my heartfelt condolences, and I wish you strength as you try to fill the void in your hearts in the coming days and months.
