Jane and Pat: Please know that you ALL are in our prayers.
I have such fond memories of laughter and warmth from your family over the past 40 years. Their friendship to our family will be deeply missed.

Dear Jane & Pat,

We are truly sad to hear about the passing of your mother, a wonderful lady. When I think of Aunt Ginny, I remember her always smiling. I still fondly remember my favorite family vacation when we all went to Aunt Dickie's Stoney Lake house, swimming, sleeping out on the porch, and all the wonderful fun we had. Another great memory, your mom and dad happened to be in town at my parent's house for the weekend of my bridal shower (over 30 years ago). Imagine how special I...

Dear Jane & Pat,
We are so sorry to hear of your loss. We have such fond memories of both your father and mother. We always looked forward to their visits to our business and cherished the relationship that grew over the years. My mother, now 86, also sends her condolences.

Dear Jane and Pat,
What a loss for you. Aunt Ginny was well loved by many and fondly remember here in California. I think one of my fondest memories of her was when mom, dad and I came to visit you all in Michigan when Gary got out of the Peace Corp. I had never experienced a thunderstorm before. Aunt Ginny heard me crying and came in and stayed with me. She told me the story of how Uncle Red got his name.
She will truly be missed.
God Bless You All.

Dear Jane, Pat and your families,

I want you to know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Your mom was truly a gift to all around her.

When I think of your mom, I recall her smile and positive energy when I visited 12 years ago. I have a great photo standing in front of your parents' home with both Aunt Ginny and Uncle Floyd. And, like Linda, I remember our lovely visit with her and our Michigan family when we were young. I'm not surprised she was my dad's favorite Aunt....

Dear Jane and Pat,

I'm so sorry to hear about the passing of Aunt Ginny. Dad always had such loving memories of your Mom and I can still see her and Uncle Red when I think back to the trip the family made to Michigan so many years ago.
You both are in my prayers.
Love one of your California cousins.

Dear Jane and Pat,
I can just see my mom, Florence, and Rita Jane saying something along the lines "Well, it's about time you showed up. Our bridge game is just about to start." Aunt Ginny always had a special place in our family and we loved her so much for it. The difference her life made to us are all the memories she leaves behind. My love and prayers to you all.

Jane,

When I think of your mother, I will always remember her sparkling Irish eyes, and her sweet smile. Hanging out at the Rademachers house in high school was always a special treat. You and your mom showed my Dad such kindness, and a few good laughs during his last days at Clark Home. May God bless and keep her close.

To the Rademacher Family: We were so sorry to hear of "Aunt Ginny's" passing. She and your dad were very dear to our family. The first thing my mom said when she heard was that she is now up in heaven playing bridge with Aunt Mary.
