I’m not sure I can put into words what a kind hearted person she was. She could brighten anyone’s morning I had the pleasure of seeing her a few mornings a week for the last 3 years. She was always so positive loved her family so much. Always asked how my day was and how my life was. She was so excited when I told her I was getting married a few weeks ago. She told me when I got back she wanted to hear all about it. She will be so missed by everyone and she will always be a star shining in the sky.
Uncle Johnny, Tom, Julie, Jeff, Heidi, Doug, Jackie and families – our thoughts and prayers continue to be with all of you. All our love.
We are very sorry for your loss Jeff. Please accept our condolences to you and your whole family.
