Grandma, thanks for always making sure I had something to eat in the mornings when you took care of us before school. You also gave me plenty of opportunities to earn some extra spending money helping you out with yard work and painting your shed. These are just a couple of memories I will forever remember. Love and miss you Grandma.
Grandma, I am so blessed to have had you in my life. You taught me how to play rummy, Skip Bo, cook bacon in the microwave, play croquet and so much more! Thank you for loving my brothers and I from day one and thank you for loving my daughter, she adored you. Say hello to Grandpa for us. We love you and will miss you so much! I will forever cherish all the memories I have.
My deepest condolences in the loss of your mother.
My mother died at 96 on March 13th so we all were very blessed to have had our mothers part of our lives for so long.

Harriet was one of my favorite. Years ago she was a member of our circle at Grace. It is an honor to have known her.

I am so sorry of your mother’s passing. She was a wonderful lady and I felt like she was my friend . I was her caregiver for 1 1/2 years and we enjoyed each other’s company a lot. I miss her very much but I am glad I can turn to her family as new friends.
Harriett was one of my mom’s favorite people. She loved working with her at Gastman events. I loved your mom for letting me hang out at your house so much that I felt like part of your family. We had a lot of fun times on the house on North St. Sending you all prayers and hugs as you say goodbye to a very special lady. Hope we can stay connected somehow. I miss seeing you. Love, Karen Miller Henselmeier
