Not sure what to say?

I lived next door to Mrs. Koth my entire childhood. She used to buy geraniums (lots of them!) from me for my school fundraiser every year. I remember her letting me help her, and her teaching me how to plant them. Mr. & Mrs. Koth were fantastic neighbors! I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother.

I am so sorry to hear about in Yvonne's passing. Michael and I would have come but didn't hear of this til yesterday. Yvonne was a very sweet Lady and would always greet me with a big smile! Big hugs to you all. The song pops into my head "When we all get to Heaven what a day of rejoicing that will be!"

I just found out through the obituaries. She was such a a sweetheart. So sorry to hear this. God bless her soul. She is now with Clyde.

I am sorry for your loss Karlene. Our mutual friend Shelley loved your mom dearly and always spoke so highly of her. Wishing you peace during this journey in life.

Yvonne touched the lives of many. We were blessed to know her through her daughter Karlene.

Our sincere condolences to all the family and friends.

Grandma,
I am truly going to miss our chats on the phone and your voice calling me a sweet gal. I am so thankful for the love, memories, laughter, and the love of Jesus you have given to me. I am honored to be your granddaughter and thank you for pouring your love into my life. I know Mom and Grandpa are so happy to be reunited with you. Until we meet again, I will keep singing Amazing Grace with you and Mom kept close in my heart. I love you Grandma!

Love always,

Yvonne was a second cousin to me, but I always thought of her as an "aunt." Always loving, caring, with a beautiful smile. I love the Purtell's story where she met Clyde. I have been privileged to be a part of her life through the Carlson gene! Rest in peace dear Yvonne, you are truly at home now. Sending my condolences to the family and friends.

Hi Mom, You made it to the finish line. You crossed through those Pearly Gates, down that street of gold, and now proudly wear your jeweled crown. There are so many that waited for you up there, you're probably still hugging the welcomes.
You have left, but we are not alone. Your spirit remains alive.
I will see you again on the other side - ready to celebrate another Mother's Day. Love, Karlene
