To Mr. Dowds, Gayle and Cheri, (I can't call your Dad by anything else)..I was good friends with Cheri in high school and after. I spent time with the Dowds and they will always be a fond memory to me. May you feel the arms of God around you during this difficult time. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Love, Karen Ervin-Shamel

I'm the youngest daughter, Cheri. We would often joke about the eldest and the youngest daughter. Our family was very close and spent a lot of time together.I am so glad I've got great memories of my Mom. We enjoyed dinners, hanging out together and shopping. Mom was quite a shopper and taught me you get more with sugar than salt, She never met a stranger--she had the knack to find out who you were and what you did. I miss you so very much. I love you Mamason...Little Hooties

My Mom was a great woman and I owe who I am to her and my Dad. You could not ask for more wonderful parents! Mom set high standards and ones I always tried to live up to. Though my world will never be the same because my Mom is gone, I know she is in a better place and no longer in pain. She does and will live on in my heart and my many, many memories. There is not one part of my life that she has not touched and I will cherish all she was forever. Mama, you will have my love and...
