Not sure what to say?

Hey great grandma its me Adele! I hope you are having a wonderful life up in heaven, and I look up to you so much! I love you!

I'm so sorry for your family's loss. I am trying to locate John Hollis Cordingly who was a LDS missionary in Nottingham, England around 1949-1951. I am the youngest daughter of Derek & Muriel Cuthbert and my mother would like to get in touch.

DEAR GEORGIANN AND PENNEY,
SO SORRY TO HEAR OF MARGARET'S PASSING. WHAT A SPECIAL LADY AND INSPIRATION TO ALL OF US. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER HOW SHE MADE YOU FEEL SO SPECIAL. MY PRAYERS AND THOUGHTS ALWAYS.
SANDEE BANTA HOMER

Momma Maggie was such a special part of my life. She and my mother, Bess C. Jenkins Lowther, spent many an hour working together at the Fremont County Courthouse. Margaret had a quick sense of humor. She always made everyone feel special. That's what special people do. I will miss her, however, I will carry wonderful memories of her in my heart.

Dear Penny and family,
Our thoughts are with you at this time. Your mother sounds like a very remarkable woman!

What can I say? Margaret was my mom away from home for some months. She was so good to me and so very special in my life. A fruit cake to the hospital the day my daughter was born (Dec 17) It was so good and I ate the whole thing! Just all the little things she did and the sweet manner in which they were done. I shall never forget this special cousin..... Carol (Egbert) Murri

I miss you so much Grandma. I'm SO glad you were there for me whenever I needed you. I couldn't have asked for a better example and inspiration in my life. You've left a large hole that will never be filled.

Dear Penny,
I remember your mother well when she worked at the Clerk's office. She is a most remarkable woman. She has devoted her life in serving her family, her community and her God (the Church). What peace and comfort the Gospel brings at such times. The people of Fremont County owe a great debt of gratitude to your parents for all they did to make it what it is today. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. J. D. Hancock (Kyiv Ukraine Temple Mission)

When we were roommates, Georgiann, your mother would bring us special things to eat. And she made sure they were ordinary things, but brought things that all of us had probably never eaten before. She wanted to help us become acquainted with more of life. I always loved her for that. I thought she was so refined, so smart, so wonderful. She not only cared for us then, but always asked about us when we were grown and gone. What a nice thing to have loved and be loved by such a grand lady.
