Not sure what to say?

Your mother was such a lovey person and I always enjoyed being with her, She was part of our family and I'm sorry we have seen so little of her in recent years. We have many memories of good times. Our thoughts go out especially to Barbara, Holly and Mary, as well as all her family. Love, Mary Koon

Cathy, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

To all the Donavan girls, you allowed me to share your Mother after my Mother died. I will never forget that. She was a wonderful, regal lady and my family loved her. I cannot express how sorry I am that I did not get the chance to tell her goodbye, but with all the wonderful memories that I have of her and all of you will live forever in my heart. I know she and Mother are in Heaven right now catching up with each other! Please if you ever need me feel free to call. I love you. Patti

Ellette always treated me with kindness and good will, and I will remember her for that, with affection.

Margie and family,
It was a pleasure to know Nana the short time I did and she always made me feel welcome. Please know that I am here for you all and am praying for strength. You can always prepare but when the time comes you are never really ready. Pain and suffering have all passed away.
Please call me if you need anything at all.
Love,
Cindy

Barbara, I fondly remember when we were at Eau Claire and neighbors near Heyward Gibbes School. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your sisters during this time of your loss. God's peace and comfort be with you all. Woody and Libbie Stokes Moore

To Margie and family,

Your mother was the sweetest lady I knew growing up at Good Shepherd in Columbia. She and Mrs. Pechilis helped me with my wedding there many years ago. She always welcomed me when spending the night at your house. I have many fond memories of her. She was a perfect role model. May God bless you all in your time of sorrow.

Barbara,
I remember your mama as the stay at home mom and I would come to your house to play. With time I enjoyed going on trips with your mother and mine with Prime Times. Memories are all we have now but what good ones they are. My prayers are with you and your sisters at this time.

What a treasure she was! I will miss her greatly. I am so thankful she moved to Still Hopes when she did. We had some wonderful times together. I can picture her on the dance floor as the band sang Happy Birthday to her on her 90th. God bless you all. How precious you girls were to your mom.
