Mom you will be happy to know that John Wayne bought your home and built an edition with a full second story. John also became a brand-new dad, and his son Elliot will be one years old on April 5. Elliot has a wonderful mother in Melissa and John is a very hands-on dad. Love and miss you.

Mom was a good woman. She helps others when the opportunity arose. She was a good housekeeper and a wonderful cook. She made the best chocolate chip cookies. I continue to miss you and know you are once again reunited with your birth family. You now have 4 great grandchildren and one more to come in June.

We really miss you. A lot has happened in the past ten years yet I do remember you last moment on earth when you sang Amazing Grace with the chaplain. Beverly is struggling with cancer and Amy also had cancer and is now cancer free. I had a wonderful trip to St. Catharines for 6 days. Remember you are deeply missed and we will always love you and dad.

In My Pocket

I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.

My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.

They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.

Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.

But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.

As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.

Shirley and Jerry Hibbard I miss you Sis and talking with you every week. When I was little she would bring me a toothbrush with a charm on it--either a lion or elephant and you made sure I used the tooth brush. You also brought us pajamas in winter they were always new flannel ones. You also took care of Stephen when aunt Louise had Gall Bladder surgery so I could be with her in EauClaire. You also took care of Angela when she was little for Christa. You were always so good with children. You managed several visits to our various places of living. Johnston, Ia. Milw.,Wi. Hales Corners, Wi.and Chetek. You were so good you came to all our celebrations. You were wonderful to us.
