We are thinking of you during this difficult time.
My husband and I are not going to ChristLife where Tiny went but when we did we loved visiting with her. I remember when she made baked goods. Our prayers for the family. Mary and Fred Statema

A women of strength in the Lord . So often we prayed together for so many loved ones . She was a great inspiration to me. Forever in my heart . Cindy Cavanaugh
