Not sure what to say?

My beautiful Mom, it has been nearly two years since your passing and I miss you so so so much! You are my best friend and the void left is unbearable...no one will ever take your place. You always listened, understood me, and willing to give your all to make things better given life's ups and downs...as you did with so many people, in all walks of life. The world is, without question, a better place because you gave so much to so many. I sure miss your advice, talking to you, and...

I can't begin to say it all, except that Bille was a lot of fun and exhibited a sensitivity that it'd be good for me to emulate. All my best to Loren, Cindy, Lisa and Jimmy!

Mr Hinkle and Hinkle family:
I feel completely honored to have known Mrs Hinkle through her energetic and motivational leadership and support of our Emerson and Mitchell football games, basketball games and fund raising efforts. (Still smiling of working side by side with her during a car wash fundraiser for our senior day trip - Mitchell class of '79!).
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Mr. Hinkle, I did not know until reading today's Gazette online that you lost Billie. It was so good to see both of you and your granddaughter last Christmas at Panino's. Fate brought us together that night and while I'm sad it will be the last time I will see your wife, I'm glad we all had the time to chat about what's been going on all these years. If you need to talk to another guy who has also lost his dear wife, please contact me.

Billie was such a tremendous lady! I feel lucky to have had so many fun times and special memories with her in cheerleading at Wasson. She was always smiling and had a great sense of humor. She was known as "Mom Hink" and was truly that to so many. She will be dearly missed and my thoughts and prayers go out to Hink and the rest of her lovely family.

Mrs. Hinkle will be greatly missed by all who knew her. She was a great inspiration to a lot of people. I have many fond memories of Mrs. Hinkle while being in the "Cougar Rooom" at Emerson. She was a great person and will be deeply missed. My thoughts and prayers go out to her family.

Lorne, the many years we knew her, the infectous laugh and smile, always at joy with life. It is with heavy heart that we read she is in heaven. Our prayers are with you and your family. We will always remember that smile.

You will be missed. I am glad we got to see you at Fargo's before you left.

Uncle Lorne and family, Aunt Billie will be missed in so many ways. Know that our thoughts and prayers will be with you all tomorrow. We are so sad we were not able to join you and family. Love and kisses.
