My condolences to the Siegfried family. Emily has been my favorite gal at Grayson View for all the years I've been doing Nails Nights there, and she also had the best nails! She's probably the kindest person I've ever met. I enjoyed her laughter, and believed every word of her stories about getting in trouble in school as a child for talking too much! I'm sorry I heard about it too late to attend the services. I would have liked to pay my last respects in person. I'm glad I knew her.

Hear my cry O God; attend unto my prayer. From the end of the earth my heart cries unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed lead me to the rock that is higher than I. Psalm 61:1-2

My Dearest Friend Greg,
Please accept my heartfelt condolences in the passing of your beloved mother. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. May God bless you and your family during this difficult time.

Dear Greg, Ed, Pat & Families. I know for certain that we never lose the people we love, even to death. I still "have" my Mother with me. They continue to participate in every act, thought and decision we make. They are always there. Their love leaves an indelible imprint in our memories. I hope you can find comfort in knowing that your lives have been enriched by having shared your Mother's love. I know for a fact that mine was enriched because of the Love that I shared with my Mother. You never get over the loss, but each day is a new day to change the face of our grief.
Love,
Cousin Crystal (Siegfried) VanValkenburg

Seig,
Sorry to hear about your mom she was a great and dignified lady. She had a long and wonderful life. It is hard to believe that fifty years ago we were playing with civil war soldiers in the back yard on 3RD Street. My deepest condolences to you and your family. Contact me when you can…

Love,

Fuzz

We would like to send our sympathies to the family of Miss Emily. We got to know her and enjoy her when she was visiting us in the Adult Day Center. When she moved into the assisted living, we were able to keep in touch with her. She is in our prayers.
