To all of Imogene's family, Grandsons , Alex (Montana), Joshua and Great grand-daughters, Brothers, Luell & Robert and Sister in Laws.. My heart aches for you and I pray God will grant you the Peace He gives that surpasses all human understanding.. Imo and I go way back 1949 to be exact.. we were "summer" sisters and I loved her like a sister. So many great times and memories we made together. I'll miss her a lot. Rest in Peace, my Summer sister, till we meet again in the Heaven above. I love you still. Chris (sis miller) Whitman, North Muskegon, Michigan.
