Dear Kelly, Renee, Jeff and Vickie,



I was very saddened to hear of the loss of your wonderful mom. Growing up with all of you are some of my fondest memories, and of course your mom always welcomed me into your home. She was very funny, quick as a whip and extremely warm to all.

May the Lord be with you in this time of need.

Thank you Mrs. Perrin for thinking of me as one of your kids.

With love Karine Enderle and family.

To Renee, Kelly, Jeff and Vicki,



I was saddened to read of the passing of your mother today. I believe I had the priviledge of meeting her on more than one occasion. She and your father raised four children that grew into wonderful adults. I know that she is so proud of you all. My heart goes out to you all at this difficult time. My you find comfort knowing that you are all in my thoughts and prayers.



God Bless,



Ned McIver
