I met Sylvia when I delivered meals to her. She was a wonderful lady, and I am thankful God brought her into my life.
we will always remember
My condolences to the family. I know she cared a lot for me and my late husband Larry Smith.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family in this difficult time.
It is with a heavy heart that I sit here tonight remembering all the good times Robert McNew and I had when we visited Earl and Mary. I was accepted into their family no questions asked. I got to know all of the family. Cubby holds a special place in my heart. I loved her as an Aunt and she treated me part of the family. May she rest in peace and God bless her.
I always enjoyed seeing and visiting with Cubby. She always seemed to be thrilled when I came. Sadly. I had not been able to come see her in a while and had not been able to reach her by phone. You will be missed.
Love you,
Your cousin
Bobbie
I am so sorry for your loss. It is difficult to lose those people that meant much to us in our lives.
Debbie, John and I are offering up prayers for you during this difficult time. Your Grandmother's picture shows a beautiful young woman and we see you in her. Take time to heal from your loss. We love you.
My heart is broken to hear of Cubby's passing. She lived a long good life. I know you will miss her but think of the joy she is having right now seeing all of her family and most of all seeing Jesus!!! My heart goes out to you! You will be in my thoughts and prayers!
Ann always made her home open to Diane's friends. I was blessed to be one of them. We would put a record on and dance till we were wore out. She was the fun mom in the neighborhood. Rip my dear sweet 2nd mom.
Debbie, I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending you love and prayers.
Ann was a beautiful Lady and loved her daughter Diane dearly. She always welcomed Diane's friends into her home...prayers for her Family.
