Dear Bachman family, Pat & I are so sad to hear of your Mom (and Grandmom's) passing. She had such a warm smile every time we saw her. From her accounts, and yours, she lead a vibrant life- sharing many stories rich in her life and yours. The world has lost such a talented musician and lover of life. God Bless and comfort you all as you remember her in the times ahead. Pat and Mary Coughlin

You were the sunshine of our lives mom

Mom,
You are so right!! We WILL miss you terribly.. You always said " You're gonna miss me when I'm gone" So look down on us, and yes there are tears we are shedding because we never thought you would EVER leave us.. and that moment has come.. You were indeed unique in everything you embodied. I love you very much. Love, Sharon

My mother, my friend, my delightful inspiration of whom I could never match. Missing her is a giant task for us all. She was like no other and so much younger that her years. Flamboyant and generous, tender and sweet. So happy to have been her daughter...We are all saddened and the tears have flown for we will never know anyone with such charm and talent. I love you mom...
