The “next door neighbors” here,
What a “dahling” she was, we all had her so confused as to what our dog’s name is. I’m sure she’ll be sorely missed by each and every one of you. Always remember the good times!

Ann, Mary Jo, and Mark – Mike and I are so saddened at the news of your Mother’s death. Our prayer for you is that God wraps his loving arms around all of you and gives you comfort. Ann, I remember those “hot dog pizzas’ your Mom made when I spent the night with you. What a treat!!

To our Best Friends!
May your mom rest now, she is truly an Angel in Heaven watching over all of you!
We remember good times being with Dolores! She always made Tim and I feel like part of the family! Playing cards with your mom and dad are what we remember, I could sit and talk with her about a lot of things.
We love you very much!
