Terry, Tim I am so sorry to hear about your mom's passing. I am praying for you and yours that you find some peace knowing she is in a better place and with her family in heaven. Terry, I said God, is Hope with you now. And the light shined bright! And I smiled thru the tears! Knowing... I love all of you. I always have. When you notice the sun doesn't shine as bright as when she was in the world know it is a real thing. Our momma's always made our days a little brighter. You don't realize it until they are gone. All my love, Linda Lilly

My biggest memory of Hope is the fact she was always there when I needed someone to talk to and always a blast to talk to and hang out with, prayers to the family.

Hope was a wonderful friend to my mother and dad. Along with her husband Dick they travelled together to Canada many times. Then spent winters together in Florida. She was always so cheerful and kind to me. And I loved to hear her sing. Rest in peace Hope. Judy Roberts Curry
