Dear Friends and Former Neighbors,

Marie and I extend our very best to you all as you celebrate the life of your Mom on Saturday. Unfortunately, we will be doing the same thing for my mother who passed away in March at age 97. Her memorial service is also on Saturday in Harbor Beach.
Our memories of your Mom and entire family, going back to 1966 when we arrived next door in Okemos, are fond indeed. May her life inspire you to continue to be people of hope and compassion just as she was. We are sorry not to be able to re-connect and express our thoughts personally as we hold all of you in high regard and so enjoyed seeing you at your Dad's life celebration. May God grant you comfort, peace and real joy as you remember and celebrate your Mom this week and always.

Your Friends,
Marie and Bob Pangman
