LeAnn,
So sorry to read about the passing of your mother. We’ll keep you in our thoughts and prayers and hope that you can find comfort and peace in all the many memories that you have of your mother.
Love,
Fred and Lori Sites
Our hearts are with each of you as you face the bleak days ahead. With our own loss so fresh, I can’t say that time will fade the pain, but others tell me it will.
What I do firmly believe is that our Mothers are both enjoying the rewards they so richly deserve and that they will continue to watch over us and guide us all in the days and years to come. We grieve the passing of a fine woman, and extend our deepest sympathies to you all.
With all our love, as always,
Eileen, Jim and family

Look up and smile at her because she is smiling down at you. Luann and David be grateful and thank-ful you had this time with her. Your days grew tired but you never gave up and that is an amazing person because you loved. Your Mom loves you for what you have done for her and now it is time for you to butterfly and live in peace also. Love to you and your Family.
