I am a mayo clinic hospice volunteer and was very fortunate to have met with your mom weekly. I truly enjoyed every visit with her. She talked alot about hunting, the cranberry big and crocheting. She was the delight of my week. I am so sorry for your loss and I will miss her.

Bob, Cindy and Family,
I am sorry for your loss. Your Mother was a wonderful woman, I was always so impressed by her. My Dad always had a soft spot for her and admired her for hunting and fishing skills. I know you have many wonderful memories of time spent with her and your father. I hope that brings you comfort at this difficult time.
