Mom,
Its hard to think of you as being gone. 95 years 10 months just whizzed past didn't they?
Who can Gary send his Santa Swatch in the woods photo to? The phone rings and you say who? who? who? Is anyone else going to answer at 4:15 AM when Karen calls to report it's snowing? Tam has lots of dumb dad jokes you're missing. Who will roll their eyes when I call about the latest kitty antics?
And who is going to tell you to check your talking watch when you call to ask the time .... again??? 😄😄
Miss you Mom. In my heart forever. Love, Nancy
Dear Sharon, Cheyenne, Liam, and Nancy,
My deepest sympathy to you and the rest of the family on the passing of Shirley. I always knew Shirley from church activities, but got to know her better when Liam came to Trinity Lutheran Childcare. She loved to talk about Liam and how special he was.
I know you will miss her but also know you have wonderful memories of times with her.
Sending much love to you all,
Lynn Cooper
