Bill, Bob, Bill, Tim, Sue and children, I am so sorry for your loss. Have known your Mom since I was 8 and believe me when I tell you I will miss her a lot. Sixty-six years is a lifetime. Am so glad she was able to come home to 'go home.' Bless all of you, you are in my thoughts, prayers and heart.

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
