Dear Brenda, Dave, and Jim,

Mother's are such precious women in our lives. Your mother was amazing and I'm so sorry for your loss. I can close my eyes and hear her laugh and see her beautiful smile. She touched my heart in so many ways throughout the years. When I was troubled with something she would let me cry on her shoulder and she would listen without judgement. She would give me a big hug & kiss and whatever I was going through no longer felt so bad. She would celebrate my joys and comfort my sorrows. I'm so proud that she taught me how to fry chicken, oysters and make really good gravy. Although I never learned how to make that amazing spaghetti sauce. She was a great wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt (of course) and friend. I love her so very much and I will miss her always. There is a great peace knowing that she is once again dancing with the love of her life. My thoughts are with you during this very difficult time. I love you all.

All my love,
Kerry Lynn##imported-begin##Kerry Thomson##imported-end##

Jimmy, David, Brenda. I'm so sorry about the loss of Aunt Janice. I haven't seen her for awhile but I have fond memories of her. I remember as a kid going to visit Uncle Jim and Aunt Janice almost every weekend. I also remember living in N.Y. and all of us building a large snowman. Brenda, If I recall right, when we played school, you always had to be the teacher, and a very bossy one. My love to everyone. Rusty Ugelstad##imported-begin##Rusty Ugelstad##imported-end##

Brenda, David, and Jimmy. I am so sorry about the loss of your Mom. She'll be missed by all her family and friends. What I'll miss most, is rehashing and laughing about our time living in New York. What a blast we had. Brenda, my boys still say that you were the bossiest school teacher they ever had.....Love to all Mary Jean##imported-begin##Mary Ugelstad##imported-end##

I have known Janice since I was five years old. I married her son twice and always thought of her as Mom. She was the only Mom I've had for 26 years and I loved her very much. She always teased me about losing my keys and she loved it when I made her things. I plan on making a quilt out of some of her clothing so everyone can enjoy a little piece of her. I can see her and Dad dancing already. I'm so glad she is out of the herrific pain she must have been in, now that is gone and all that's left is the good things we remember, trying to forget the bad memories of her suffering. We love you so much, keep smiling and dancing!##imported-begin##Sandy Howard##imported-end##

My Dearest Brenda,
You know if there was any way I could be there I would, just know in your hear that I'm. Please tell Jimmy & David how sorry I am.
How strange is this, this morning when getting dressed I though I'll put on my Mariner's jersey in honor of Jan, then I read her notice.
I love you sweetie##imported-begin##Mom##imported-end##
