She was a new friend to me and I only saw her once a year at Quilt Retreat. I looked forward to our conversations and her gentle spirit. She will be missed by many.

Dear James, Krista, Daniel, Michael, Matthew, Mark, and Andrew,
We send our sincere sympathies to all of you. Your mother was such a bright shining star with her incredible smile, such a very hard worker no matter the difficulty, such a great cook pulling from her huge garden, her strong relationship with Jesus to get her through everything, and with so many more talents and gifts, especially her strong goal of home educating even when it was not popular just because she loved you all...
