Larry, Joe and Cheryl,

I worked with your Mom at SMS from 1973 until she retired. I have so many fond memories - both professionally and personally. I was hired as a "staff accountant" after graduating from college, and your mom adopted me immediately! We had SO many laughs! I particularly remember when she turned 50. She was dreading the milestone, and I made it even worse by hanging "You're a quarter of the way to a bicentennial!" signs all around the office. She had such a...

I always loved getting to see Lema and little Sutter at the vet hospital when she would come in. They were just the sweetest pair! My thoughts are with your family in this time, and sending hugs to little Sutter.

I want to Thank Cheryl, Merele Lee, Joe,Larry, Mark, Kit, Matt, Kenneth and all the other grand and great grandchildren for sharing Lema with me. Lema shared her life with me each day. The good and the bad. Lema told me how Larry got her out of a very & hurtfull situation many years ago. She cried and smiled and said Larry sure did help her.

Lima was a sweet, loving and devout person; a friend we'll always remember. We cherish all the memories of her at birthday parties, etc.!

Lema was a wonderful neighbor, loving, caring and helpful. She helped me when my husband was ill and she thought it was a honor to be with him in his last hour. She loved The Lord with all her heart and is now with him in peace. I'll always love her and remember her and know she is watching over us all. Elsa Dailey

I enjoyed her emails over the years, and heard alot about her fromm my grandfather, Raymond Knight who loved her. Knowing she is with him and my grandmother Alta, I know they are dancing! God bless you and yours. She made a difference in this crazy world.

Cheryl, Larry & Joe,
Words cannot convey the hole in our hearts for your loss and ours. Aunt Lee was so loving and caring to us thru the years--she was like a second Mom. We will miss terribly not being able to stop & visit her during our RV travels. May God bless and keep you all in His care thru this difficult time.

Larry, Joe & Cheryl,
We are sorry for your loss & know that we will see her again in heaven!
Ricky & Lisa Marks

Larry, Cheryl & Joe, My prayers are with you. Your Mom was very dear to me. She will be missed.
