Mom, my treasured memories of you are the time you made my canoe that I took to school when I was in 1st. grade and hid in my desk for comfort when i needed it, and the time you helped me move (push) my snowman out of the way for the coalman, and the best was when I was hit by a car and almost lost my leg, you were the first person I seen when I woke up then it was dad, but it was your love that made me want to go on and know I was going to be ok. With that memory I will be able to move forward now. I love you mom and will miss you forever until we meet again,love your son Buster.

mom,I wanted to say thank you for teaching me how to can green beans and zucchini relish. Thus starting my love of canning the harvest from our garden. And for instructing me on frying the fish, and making squirrel gravy-yuck thankfully I never had to do that. Your puzzle posters meant alot to us over the years and will continue to hang on our walls. You will forever missed by all.

I'm glad I got to enjoy the past 10 years with you grandma. When my mom married your son Ken, it started a whole new family for all of us. Though like every family we all had our quarrels with each other, but everytime you were around, it made everything feel peaceful. You could definatley light up a room and knew how to make everyone feel better. God has a special place in heaven for you grandma, and I will miss you. Love you grandma.
