Wow, where do I begin? I married into this family in March 2002 and from the day I met "Peach" and the rest of you guys, I have felt like I have been a part of it forever. She gave me the warmest hug and I always felt so comfortable around her. When we would come out to visit, she always had a table full of food and worked endlessly to make sure we had everything. She was a wonderful,caring, and loving woman. We love you all and are thinking of you.

I would like to say how sorry I am for the loss of such a loved and respected woman. I honestly can not remember when I met her: she has been in my life for as long as I can remember. But I feel so honored that the last time I saw her was on Easter this year. She hugged me and said she was glad to see me. She met my son and told me he was adorable. And she also told me not to be a stranger and to come and visit my dad and Jud more often. I'm glad she got to see me grow up and make something of myself. She got to see the worst and the best of me......and the last thing she did was hug me and say it was good to see me. That memory will last a lifetime. The more I hear how many lives she touched, the more blessed I feel that I was one of them. Especially seeing how she touched my Dad and Judy. I am forever grateful to her. May she rest now in the Lord's Hands.

My brother and I would like to offer our condolences and prayers to the family of a person who was wonderful beyond words."Peaches" and Jerry took me in when I was without a place to stay for a few weeks until I could get back on my feet in the early eighties and I am eternally grateful for your kindness and hospitality.For Jerry, Debbie, Sharon, Judy, Marty, Sonny,"little Marty", I pray for all of you and I remember a lot of great times we had. I thank the good Lord that he put Peaches on this earth, because she leaves it a much better place. God bless from Wolfgang and Konrad Resch
