My heart goes out to you Kerry and the entire family. I am so glad that Ma was able to be surrounded by all her children and loved beyond all reason. She deserved every ounce of that love and care that you all gave to her. I can only image the beautiful reunion in heaven. She will be missed by so many and cherished as the Mother she was to everyone. I know her loving sprit will live on through her children and all who were blessed to know her.

Gramdma Grandma you were the rock to our family.. if it wasn’t for you my life wouldn’t be the same. There aren’t not enough words in the world to describe the person you were. To the people who knew you were the luckiest people in the world. We will never forget all the great memories you have to me and Aidan. You will forever be loved and missed. Xoxoxo Lady, I love you a bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck.

Sorry for the loss of your mom. She was an amazing woman. Some of my favorite memories are going to the house in Round Lake when she was making tacos!
She was funny, warm and we loved seeing her at our Ugly Ornament Parties. She had a wonderful way of making you feel like you were one of her kids, She will be missed. Thoughts and prayers are with the family.
