I will always remember you mom with a smile and a laugh...she was a great lady who always allowed Laura and I to build tents in the backyard over the picnic table and have sleepovers all the time....also, I remember the trip to the lake with all those snakes!!!!!
Again, she was a great lady and you were very lucky to have her as your mom.........
You are all in our thoughts and prayers!!!

Mr. Buck, Sue, Roger, Carol, and Laura,
Please know I send my most deepest sympathy. Your mother was an important part of my growing up. I loved coming next door just to sit and talk with her. Tearfully, I write...an earthly angel has been given her heavenly wings. Forever in my heart! Love, Pam
