We are thinking of your family today as you celebrate the love your mother had for each of you and the lives she touched. We had planned to attend but weather discouraged us. Praying for your family. Janet & Don Boezwinkle

Understanding, kind, good moral character, these are a few of my memories of a wonderful teacher. She cared for our kids at Kinney School and I appreciated what she helped instill in them. Prayers for the family.

Gene, Rick, Rod & Margo, I now know how it feel to loss someone that you love so dearly, have comfort that she is up in heaven & she has just found out that dad is there with her, I'm sure he has welcomed her into Gods house & they have a lot to talk about. I know the tears run easy & your heart hurts because even though she is no longer in pain you still hurt, after all she's still your mom & you love & miss her very much. I will see you next week at the funeral home & at the funeral. Your mom was a great lady & will be truly missed.

I am so sorry for your loss. Mrs. Bushey was my teacher as well as my safety patrol leader at Kinney School back in the mid 60's. She was one of my favorite teachers. Years later my father became the custodian at Kinney School and I know she was one of his favorite people there as well. She was one of the best people my family had the pleasure of knowing.
