My deepest sympathy to the Stanton family. What a beautiful lady and mom, who was always gracious, friendly, and compassionate with her quests. May you find solace in her absence, knowing she will be remembered with dear fondness in the hearts of who knew her and had the blessing to meet her and her family. God's Blessings, love and peace to you in her passing.
