Today is Mother's Day, 2020. I visited my grandmothers' and my own mother at the cemetery this morning. I knew where Mr. Hankenhof's gravestone was, as I pass it while visiting family members along the same path. Today, I was saddened to see my dear friend from years ago had passed away. Mrs. Hankenhof was wonderful to me over the years as she opened her home to me with her wonderful family with graciousness, hospitality and love. She instilled in me her motto for a fruitful life: Morals, Character and Integrity. Mrs. H, I will never forget the love you showed me in my high school years. How does one truly thank another for life''s lessons learned? Rest peacefully with Mr. H, you were both so very good to me. God bless your beautiful soul....

My deepest sympathy to the Hankenhof family. Your mother was such a wonderful person and made me feel so welcomed at the house. I'm certain that she is with our Father in Heaven.
Sincerely, Nick Smith
