I was sad that I was not able to travel home for Grandma’s funeral because of tests at school. I will always cherish the many times Grandma took Jason and me to McDonald’s for lunch and then to the park and swimming pool. Grandma let us play as long as we wanted. When we were tired out, she would take us back to the shop and feed us as many cookies as she could before we'd leave with my dad. She never ran out of kindness or love for me.

Dwain & family,
I was in ND, and just got home late thursday night. I'm sorry I couldn't be there.
Aurie was one of the nicest people I've known. I always wished I could have her patience and kindness. I will never forget Aurie.
Your cousin

Dear Dwain, Janice, Joann, David, Judy, Dan and Jimmy, spouses, grandchildren and great grandchildren of Aurie and Dwain
I had very much wanted to be with you at this time but have had to cancel my travel plans because of a flu bug.
My Aunt Aurie was the dearest Auntie anyone could wish for and I will miss her prensence in my life. Do you remember those years of Jeanmarie's long illness and death? Your mother welcomed all us Severs into her home whenever it was needed and our need was great. She was busy with six children of her own and helped run her husband's business but never once made herself or her home unavailable to our family's needs. (How did she do that?) She has been a huge support to all of us, a shelter and safe haven. I send hugs from Boise! I love you all and carry with me an inspiration from the life of my Aunt Aurie to love deeply and serve tirelessly.
My love,
Diane
