Anna was a very strong, kind lady. She was such a help to me when I was ill. Very encouraging.....and uplifting. She would call and send meals; the most important was her wisdom and encouragement. Will miss her & will be so happy to see her again in the future. Lots of love to a dear friend.

Mimi,
May you finally be at peace, being with Pappy and uncle Larry. You will be missed by so many people, but we know you are where you have longed to be for such a long time. We love you and you'll forever be in our hearts, Dean and Lisa.

Mimi, I have so many memories of you throughout my childhood that mean so much to me. I will never forget the things you taught me and the values you instilled in me that made me the woman and mother I am today. You have always been such a strong, special & beautiful person in my life and its going to be hard getting used to the fact that I can't just pick up the phone and call you anymore. I'm thankful that you lived such a long life and I know that you are happy where you are now. Tell Daddy and Pappy how much we all love and miss them! I love you so much and can't wait to see you again one day =) Rest easy, Mimi =)
