I was so sorry I missed the memorial service. I was in the hospital. Belva and I worked together at FMH for many years and stayed close friends in our retirements. We enjoyed many shopping trips together and of course, many restaurant meals after our shopping sprees.
My sincere condolences to her family. She will be dearly missed.

Keeping you all in my prayers during this difficult time. I have some fond memories visiting your mom and dad growing up. Snooki was always a classy, soft spoken kind lady. She is now resting peacefully with you dad for eternity. Stacey Schildt Keilholtz

Dear Jim and Susan, Sorry I cannot attend, am having surgery on Tuesday. Belva was my mentor when I started work at FMH in 1966. We had many good years working together. She was truly a special person.
I know she will be missed. I know she really enjoyed our nurses reunions. Sincerely, Ellen Crutchley, President of FMH Nurses Alumnae Association.
