While looking at the obituaries. I came across the Gilker name and stopped in to see if it was anyone I knew.
I was touched at the dedication to these two people in the double obituary. I have never seen it done this way. What a way to honor their love and commitment to each other.

Just wanted to share that and send my condolences to your family.

Dear Grandma & Grandpa,
I want you to know I love you both with all my heart, you will be greatly missed and cherished at the same time, you were both wondeful people, thank you for being the best grandparents in the world for all the years you were here. May your souls rest in peace and may you two be re-united once again. I love you both, you will forever be in my heart.
