Comments Dearest Sister, I recall when we were young and mother was very ill how you cared for us with " baths, fixing our hair, and doing other chores. You have helped others and remained true to your faith. You always talked how kind and caring your Jahovah Witness friends were. Now you are with Mary Ann and Glen. God bless. We loved you very much and will miss you. Your sister Sandy.

Thanks for sharing my first twelve years of life with me. We had some poor times and some good times. I still remember Mom making you that princess outfit to wear to a " halloween party. You were so beautiful you looked like a princess to me. I was so ticked off I was not "old" enough to go that I hid your jar of mum.
