Ray and Lisa and family,
I am so very sorry about Aunt Dode. I have thought of all of you often. She was so wonderful, and will always be remembered and loved. I would love to hear from you and to know where she was laid to rest so I can visit. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Love you all!! 801-776-1403

Ray and Lisa and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I have missed seeing you at TJMAXX on the weekends, I always looked forward to seeing your cute mom and you and Ray on the weekends. She was a warm and loving person and I enjoyed seeing her and her wonderful smile. I will miss her and I will never forget her sweet smile and spirit.
God Bless
