Not sure what to say?

So sorry for the passing of Mrs Lambert. While growing up in Lawton her son Harry jr was one of my best friends. When the Lambert´s would go someplace they would take me along and Harry jr and I would sit in the back of their Chevy station wagon and have fun . Mrs Lambert was always such sweet lady and she will sadly be missed by family and friends.

My grandmother will be remembered for her many talents. She not only collected dolls but also spent hours making them. If it was handmade, she had a knack for it. She enjoyed playing cards with my folks, particularly penny poker. I admired her creativity, her drive, her devotion to family, her active lifestyle, her stamina/ perseverance. She was very hospitable and welcoming. One special memory imparticular was the receipt of a $2.00 bill each year for my birthday. LOVE YOU GRANDMA

Shirley was such a wonderful and unique lady. She made so many beautiful hand quilted wall hangings and quilts with the tiniest stitches, She will be missed by all who loved and knew her.

We were very honored that our parents decided to move back to Michigan for the last years of their lives. My sisters and I went to their home for diner once a week,taking turns cooking. We would enjoy the journy's back in time they shared with us. The stories we all shared of growing up in Lawton were priceless. I miss you mom. However, I know you are in a better place with no pain.

I wish I would have known her better, she will be missed greatly.

It was such an honor to have the opportunity to spend so much time with mom the last few months of her life. During this time she shared her most gentle and vulnerable self. I will always love her.
