My dear family and friends, it’s been one heck of a whirlwind, rollercoaster ride with you all through the years, which I would not trade for anything.  I learned a lot about life from all of you and pray it has made a better person of me.  Thanks for all the tears and laughter that went with it (hair pulling and gray hairs).

To my husband and my life, “thank you.”  On the 3rd of July 1965, in Great Falls, Montana we started this journey together.  Walter you will be fine I know it take it one day at a time. 

Thank you my dear children for teaching me what it was like to be a mother, I learned a lot and still am watching you with your children and you are doing great with them and I am proud of you all. 

To Tammy (Roedel) Jennings and her husband Jerry, thanks for being there.

To my sister Sandy and her husband Bill who have taught me about the strength in you and that love is always there and to look for it.

            To Pastor Tom and Sherri Lukstrom, thanks for being my friend, you taught me the true meaning of friendship.

I love you all very much and thanks again for all teaching me what love is, we’ll never forget, but time will help ease the pain.  So for now, I love you all and will see you again someday I will always be with you. 

Love,

Wife and Mom

…And please smile!
