Joan D. Sager

Joan - Mother Teresa once said: "I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love." We also learned that the first rule of love is to listen - you were great at both! That's why hanging out with you was my very favorite thing to do in life and I really miss you!! Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary Sweetheart - I love you!!!

Grandma,
These past few months have been really tough, but I always remembered how I would come over and we would tallk for hours. I discovered how strong you were. You went through so many tough times and tought me to find my strength in the Lord. You taught me how to stand up to what I believe in. You have taught me how to forgive those who have hurt me and to forgive myself when I have made mistakes. You never lost faith and thus doing so helped me to never lose mine. You helped...

Joan, it has been a long and lonely three months since last holding your hand! You were and will always be my "Once In A Lifetime"!

Grandma,
You have been like a second mother to me. Sharing your wisdom, love, and kindness. You were such a great teacher and I will always remember the great stories you told. You will always stay in my heart. Please guide me and watch over me. I love you grandma and always will. Until we meet again, I can't wait.

Dearest Mother Of Mine,
Thank you for all the Love you've given me and the secrets shared between only you & I. I miss you so much!!! You have been my world and always will be. You have wiped away my tears, lifted me up when I was down and gave me courage to go on. You've held my hand throughout my life...now you will forever hold my heart.
Now and forever your loving daughter,
Barbara

Truly an inspiration through every moment of her life, Joan showed us all how to love well and laugh well. I will never forget her incredible smile, so full of life and light, even when there seems to be nothing left to smile about. She has a strong and victorious spirit that has to be a delight to her Creator. I look forward to the day when we can hug again… Lisa

Grandma,
It is said that a human life is a story told by God. Your story is one of faith, compassion, and family. I may not always successfully follow what you taught me during those summers I spent with you growing up, but I have never forgotten the lessons. The sadness I feel with you gone is offset by the joy of knowing that you are looking over all of us. If we live forever in the hearts we leave behind, then you will truly live forever. I’ll miss you always. Love, Dave

Grandma,
You have always been a very important person in my life. I'm sorry I didn't see you or talk to you as much in the last few years, but i will always have the memories of our relationship while I was growing up. You were my second mother during a large part of my childhood whether it be the times I spent at your house or the times you took me camping, etc. I will miss you until i see you again.. Love, Don

Momma,
I have been blessed my whole life through to have a Mother like you! You have been my confessor, my friend, my confidant, the shoulder I'd cry on, my guide and inspiration! You have always been there for me when I needed your Love, spiritual advice and comfort. You have been for me "My Angel", always uplifting, never condemning! I will miss you more than anyone will ever know. I've seen your smiling face in my dreams... and I know you are blissfully happy and at peace so... until...
