    Im so sorry to hear about your loss, may god bless you in this difficult time. You and your family are in my prayers.

  3. Dear Susie and Ronnie and family
    Please know that we send our sympathy and love and that you all are in our thoughts and prayers during these trying times.

    We have always considered the Shook family as part of our family as we all grew up together on Rumbough Place. Lorraine and Guy V. were always so kind to us.

    I remember them taking me places that you all went such as going to your Mitchell grandparents store and also going to Pa and Ma Shooks house and to Lillian’s and Shiela’s house.

    I shall always cherish the memories I have of Lorraine and Guy V and also of you Susie and Ronnie

    Susie please know that if there is anything at anytime that Buddy and I can do for you just let us know.

    Love

    Irma and Buddy

  5. Marilyn, I was so sorry to hear about your mom. It brought back many of my happiest memories — even though she did threaten to kill us on many occasions! We had some great times on Rumbough and Homestead. I know how close you were to her and how much you are going to miss her. I’ll be thinking of you.
