Sam, Sharon and Families.
I want to give my sincere condolences to you and your families. I know your Mom will be missed and there are good reasons for that. She has been a great Mother and Grandmother to you and your children. I always thought of her and Stanley as family. I know that they will be together now and look out Heaven , there will be a big square dance there now… they had a good life, good times and did a lot of things together with love for each other and their family. May God bless you all. You have two Angels watching over you now. If there is anything I can do, please call.
Love Larry and Family
My deepest sympathy at this time of loss. May God hold your hearts and comfort you. Sincerely Doris Coon
