Mary and Family,

Just received word about your Mom passing. She was a great part of your brother and my life. She was there when we graduated from high school, then when we went off to college together, and again after that when we got back together in out late 20's. She was always there to listen to your problems, give good advise and lean a helping hand with that wonderful smile. She will truley be miss. If there is anything that you need please let me or my wife Jo Ann know.

Mary and family,
Barbara was a very special person in my life. With deepest sympathy on, today, the thirteenth anniversary of Neal's passing, I wanted to let you know that I sense she is catching up with all of those that have gone before her...of course, Neal and Earl; also my Aunt Jo and my mother and many more.
Everyone that had the pleasure of meeting and knowing Barbara most certainly delighted in that quick smile and loving attitude.
With kindest regards, Paige (May 3rd)
