Those we love don't go away,
They walk beside us every day,
Unseen, unheard, but always near,
Still loved, still missed and very dear.
Kendy, We miss you. See you with smiles

So sad to here that Kendra passed away. I went to church, jr. high, & graduated class of '78 with Kendra. She was always a wonderful person & will be greatly missed. Glad I have alot of fond memories. I last saw her in Aug.2010. My prayers go out to the Sharp & Gray Families. "Kendra, I'll see you, again, in heaven one day. Rest in Peace, my good friend."

Dear Kristen and Gentry,
I remember so fondly how helpful your mother was when you two were in Kindergarten. She was always there when I needed her. She was a special friend to all the children in the classes. She never seemed to have a bad day. She was a truly devoted mother. I'm sorry that I can't be ther for you. I am in Florida since I am now a retired "snowbird". My thought and prayers are with both of you.
Love, Mrs. Richards

You being there for Jonathan in so many ways, like a second mom. We will rejoice with you around the throne of God together some day. Love you always. You will never be forgotten.
