Penny & I will certainly miss mama in the yard walking her dog. God bless you all. Roger & Penny
I lived next door to Thelma Collins and had the pleasure of meeting your mom through her. I always enjoyed talking with her during her visits. She was one sweet lady and I know that you will miss her so much as I have missed her since Thelma’s death. I hope it gives you comfort in knowing that she is with her heavenly father and reunited with family members.
Terry and Wanda,
I was saddened to read of your Mother’s passing. I am sorry for your loss and my thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Terry & Wanda,
We were deeply saddened to hear of your Mother’s passing. She will alway be ‘my Favorite Aunt’. Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time.
Love, Gary & Connie

Our deepest sympathy comes to you in this time of sorrow. Bask in the sunny thoughts of what a wonderful Mom and great person she was. I had many good times with Margaret trying to out do her with pranks. She will be greatly missed. With much Love.
