Not sure what to say?

My heart goes to you, Kathleen, Bill, and to the rest of your family. I only met your Mom once, but she raised a most talented, creative, funny, loyal, and caring daughter who became my sister Pam's dear friend/sister-in-Christ. It's so, so hard to lose a parent. My heart goes out to you at this difficult time. You and your family are truly in my prayers tonight and for many, more. Take care.

Kathleen, I felt so honored to have known your mother since our college days. She was very kind. When I think of the crocheted baby blanket she made for our daughter, I remember her hands. She had trouble with them, but continued to make lovely things for others. It's been a long time since she's been able to be home on earth, but now she is free to be home with our Savior, Jesus Christ. I pray for you and Bill, and for the rest of your family.
Love, Pam, Tom and Rebecca Grob

Jerry ane Laura were my other mom and dad, and the fondest memories of my formative years were my times with the Shearers.
