Jim,

You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. Your wife is in God's care now.

Through the years we have drifted away in different directions as we became older and our priorities changed.

I will always remember the good times we spent hunting and fishing. My wife and I cannot imagine what you are going through.

With deepest sympathy,

Joe and Tammy Rabe

Jim, Jeanna, Chris & Alex,

We were so sad to hear of Rita's passing. She was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother. When you think of her try to remember the fun & good times. It sounds simple, but somehow with time it helps in healing. If we can do anything, please just call. She will be greatly missed.

Love,

Gary & Sherry

We have only known Rita for a few years but she was such a caring, loving person. We were proud to have her for a friend. We know she will be missed, but she is in a better place.
