Not sure what to say?

In loving memory of our dear "aunt Jane". She holds a special place in my heart. My condolences to all of you.

Jane meant so much to me. She and her family warmly welcomed me into their home when I was just 16 and dating her son, Ross. Later she became my mother-in-law and I was just so happy being part of her incredible family. She created a warm and fun loving place to be. She taught me how to cook, counseled me on traveling and living abroad, motherhood and life. She was a fantastic grandmother to my children Andrea, Cheryl and Steven. She was loved greatly by all of us and will be missed.

I remember Jane as a very gracious and caring person for whom family meant the world. I am saddened. My heart goes out to her family and friends. ALB

I remember Mrs. Kochenderfer, Susan's mom, as being one of the nicest moms and most terrific mothers I ever met as a classroom teacher. She will be remembered with great fondness and with deep respect. My sympathy to the whole family. LS
