Happy Birthday, Mary! I know how much you disliked my singing, so I won’t sing. Well, maybe just one verse.... I know you’re up there laughing right now. Gillie is with Sharon McElfish at the Point. We have a storm with lots of thunder going on right now, so as you can imagine, he’s on her lap. I can tell he misses you! OJ and Lemonade have gone to Anne Harrington’s pond, which had no fish. Ramone transported them along with the cover as we’ve had a Great Blue Heron lurking about. But just because Jim has done a great job supervising everybody and everything, don’t think you aren’t missed. You are very missed but I know you’re at peace now. Major heavenly hugs to you!
Mary was such a bright light in the world. Her quick wit and sense of humor made our family dinners full of laughter. She will truly be missed. Lifting Prayers Of comfort for her whole family during this difficult time. -Sandy Knepp
We miss you grandma. Technically you just became a great-grandma, but you’ve always been a GREAT grandma (get it? :) ) we had a ball in Europe together and you played a huge role in raising me when I needed you.
Love always,
Nikki ( Nicole) & Michael Joseph
Jim, sending you and your family love, thoughts and prayers. Your mother had a wonderful life and I’m sure you were a source of great pride and wonderment. Every condolence to you and yours. Best, Noel Obourn
