Julie, David and Tim - just wanted you to know that I'm thinking of all of you. Your mom was special, and I have many fond memories of her and all of you. When I was very young, I was playing in the ravine next to our house when your mom came down. She went out of her way, and had made a special trip to find me and present me with a plaque for winning the Pinewood Derby. What a classy lady! My love to all of you.

Loved your Mom! She was such an upbeat woman who always took time to chat. Our parents had many, many great times together. They’re all reunited now. She will be greatly missed. Love to you all.

Hi Kathleen. Thank you so much. You were there for us when we needed it. And of course as kids, we loved to come to the "farm". Much love from our family to yours.

Julie and Family, I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I rarely get a newspaper and just saw it in the obituaries, as I was looking for a different one. I will always remember her beautiful smile. I would love to see you, Julie, if you come to South Haven!

Thank you Dani - My mom always love to see you when she would come into the drugstore and was so happy for you when you want Miss Southhaven. We are planning a celebration of life service for her later this year and I will let you know when we schedule it.
