Sue...your Mom was always smiling. She is now happier than we can imagine. I loved when she came with you folks to Aspendell. I remember how she didn't want to go to the pond and watch her grandsons possibly fall through the ice on the pond. She preferred to stay home and worry from there! I'll miss that she's not around.

Sue, Bill, and family-
Our deepest sympathies to you concerning the loss of the woman you called, Mom, Mother-in-law, Grandma, Great Grandma, and Friend. It is quite evident from her online video what a beautiful and loved woman she was. Cherish all the good memories you have of her. Tuck them into your hearts and in that way she will never leave you! Her legacy will forever be carried on in the stories you share about her in the days, months, and years to come.
Take Care.
Hugs to All of You.
Love-
Jim and LaWanna
