Della, I prayed so very hard for God to heal your Mama ... and He did, though not as we'd hoped. Life without our Mamas is so much harder, but they are home with Jesus. Praying for comfort for you in the days to come.
Della I’m so sorry for your loss, your mother was a very nice woman. The world has become a little less bright on her passing. Hope you are doing ok. Allen
I first met Francis through my beautiful daughter in law Hayley. Francis was a sweet soul who would do anything for you. She loved her daughter Della so very much. She never met a stranger but, she would set ya straight in a minute if you were wrong. Heaven is gaining a darling sweetheart. She will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Remember her spirit will always be with you. Love, Virginia and Mark Larsen
