I'm relieved your suffering is over, but also am so sad that you have left us. I'll always remember the fun times during your Memorial Day weekend trips to Kansas. We had a lot of laughs, didn't we?!! A life well lived, Aunt Lorna! My deepest sympathies and love to Uncle Wendell and all the family. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Terry Lilak, Sylvan Grove, Kansas.

My prayers are with you, family, as you mourn the loss of a wonder woman, a child of God, a servant of her church. She will be greatly missed. We cling to the hope of the resurrection of Jesus Christ and know that we will be reunited again someday.
Peace be with you....... Pastor Daniel B. Carlson
