Stacey, Amy & Family~

I've just heard of your mother's passing, I am saddened. She was kind, considerate and always made me feel welcomed in her home.

She has now found the peace she deserves. Prayers to all.

Stacey & Amy,

I'm very sorry to hear about your Mom. Although I haven't seen her in some time I have fond memories of her from when we were kids. May she Rest in Peace.

Stacey and Amy, my condolences to you both. It has been a long road.
I had a lot of fun with your mother when she accompanied me on my daily trips to the park with my dogs. She was great company and she is missed.
