A Journey Remembered
As some people journey
through life,
they leave footprints wherever
they go,
Footprints of kindness and love,
courage and compassion,
humor and inspiration,
joy and faith.
Even when they are gone,
we can still look back and
clearly see
the trail they left behind- a trail
bright with hope that invites us
to follow
-author unknown
You did the same…and so much more. As we travel the luminous trail you left behind, forever carrying your love and memories in our hearts, you will never be forgotten.
Service and interment held privately by the family. A Celebration of Life gathering will be held Saturday, August 2, 2025 at 1:00 PM at Aileen’s Home. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to a charity of your choice.
