Steve,
So sorry to hear about your mom's passing. She must have a been a wonderful lady, judging by the friendly & caring son she raised! I pray you, and all those who love her, can take comfort in knowing that she is experiencing the fullness of joy that comes from being in God's presence. (Psalm 16:11)

Kim and Tom,
So great to hear from you!! We were so blessed to have Hospice this last year on mom's journey! Between us all we were able to keep her in her house where she died peacefully 4 days after celebrating her 85th birthday!! She was such a trooper, our cat with 9 lives!! Hope you and all your family are doing well!! God Bless

I have many wonderful memories of hanging out with Kevin and siblings, at your home when we were kids,...high school and college years. Such a welcoming, sweet lady, and leader of a wonderful family. My condolences to you all.

I visited Ann as a home nurse and she was so loving and it was evident what her family meant to her. We had so many great visits and she never complained about her ailments but instead talked about her blessings!! She had great love for her husband and her children and she touched me with her strength and beauty. I am sure you feel her loss but my wish is you also feel her presence. God Bless all of you.

Sending prayers and love to you all from North Carolina. Ann Marie is (will always be) a model for me with her openess, graciousness and fun. She was caring and loving to my parents, Louis and Levina Rea- Schwendinger , Levina being her mother's cousin. When I would come to Ia. to visit once a year, it was always a trip to see Ron and Ann Marie who were always so welcoming to them and me.
