Hey All!

I miss your Mom so much. I was just getting her vibs this week and thinking about how she used to say "when the going get tough, the tough get going." She had a huge impact on my life. Love to all of you. Charlotte

Tom, and family. We were very fortunate to meet your mother last July. She was a very special person, and thank you for introducing us to her. We are saddened to hear about your loss, but you know that she's with your dad in heaven. Our deepest condolences.

Geroge and Phyllis McWilliams

As you know, Mom loved hummingbirds, she designed her and Dad's stone with a catcher's mitt for him and a hummingbird for her. We still feed them on her front porch. One week after her death, Galen saw the first ever hummingbird at his house on a flower, and, I picked up a hummingbird logo golf ball. In my collection of over 2,000 unique logo golf balls, that is the only hummingbird. Thanks Mom.

Our deepest sympathy.

Sorry to read about you Mother's passing. We are losing the Greatest generation.

Galen and the entire McWilliams family, Sorry to hear about the loss of Phyllis. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Luke, Tom, Ann and Galen: my condolences on your loss...though it has been many many years I have only fond memories of the times I and my four brothers spent as a child at your parent's farm...the hospitality...the food...our mothers' laughter and incessant story-telling...your Aunt Sara, your parents and your grand-parents Sam and Minnie Hess were integral parts of our childhood years...you "come from good stock" as they say...may the foundation of faith and love that they instilled in you...

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know that no matter how happy you are for your mother to be at peace and with loved ones, that have gone on before, she leaves friends and family behind that love her dearly. May God wrap you in his love and give you peace.
