Rebecca, I often remember your mom as I drive by the home place on Roan St. Additionally, I recall the Christmas ham given at your request as a 5th grader. You were an ideal student and tried so hard to produce the best geography notebook! At that time school was definitely different than today. I know your mom and poppa were always proud of you--you were very special. It would be interesting to know what you did after Science Hill. Love in Jesus, Mr. Malcolm

I am so sorry to hear this, but I'm sure Sara and Nell were waiting with open arms. I will always see her with a big smile and hearty laugh. Sledding, hiking, girl scouts, slumber parties. Your mother was a jewel. I hope you can focus on lots of happy memories. She left us with many. Love to you both, Rebecca and Brenda, and your families.

Rebecca, I am very sorry to learn of your loss. My parents rented their first apartment from your parents, who were unfailingly kind and generous. As a young mother, my mom valued your mom's friendship and good sense, and she talked about her often over the years. My memories of your mother are all good ones. I wish you peace at this time of parting.
