To Ms. Bert my best friend from Coral Street. I will always remember your beautiful smile, the kinds words you had for Carlos, my sons, and me. Even though I already miss you I am happy that you are at rest and not feeling any more pain.
I would like you to do me a favor and let my mother know that we are all doing well and we know that she is watching over us just like you are watching over your family.
When my time is up on earth and I go to Heaven I expect my mother, my other family members, and you to greet me.
Remember to watch over us and send us your blessing. 
May you rest in peace my dearest friend.
Love you always,   Zelma 


She was one of the nicest and most caring person I have ever met.  My family and I mourn her passing.
Judy, Dawn, Stacy and Kathryn Bottcher


To Brittany,
I hope you remember me I was the Manager of Mandee's where I met you and your grandmother many years ago. I am sorry to hear of her passing. I enjoyed the  relationship we shared helping her shop for you and Jennez. She was a bright spot in my day when she came into the store. I will always remember her beautiful smile, words of wisdom and strength. I believe in angels and know she will always be watching over her family and friends.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
Lisa Zug
