Share your Memorial with Family & Friends

I have such fond memories of Aunt Bobbie when she would come to visit our house to celebrate her birthday and my mom's. She had a great sense of humor and a lovely laugh. She was a great support to us when our mom passed away. I especially remember her warmth, kindness and love. Rest in peace Aunt Bobbie!

I miss you Mom. I miss our heart to hearts. I miss sharing our favorite books. I miss playing 500 with you and EJ. Where you were my partner that always got us the win! I miss taking our burdens to The Lord in prayer. Now you see Him face to face and he wipes every tear from your eyes. And you are hearing Him say, “well done”.

Cindy I am so very sorry. I never knew Barb was your Mother. I worked for her for years. She was kind and sweet and fair. I have nothing but, great memories of her. Prayers of comfort for you and your family.

Family and friends of "Bobbie" and E.J.: I had a visit to her ON MY SCHEDULE for my return trip to Kalamazoo in early June! It gives me much comfort knowing her trip to Heaven took place while she was asleep. Now E.J. will have his Sweetheart with him again. Tonight I will say a special prayer for her soul and the comfort of all who know and love her. Mac from The Gazette.

I believe you are truly dancing with the stars Mom (and Dad of course)! So bittersweet this is though. And yes, Mom, MORE than enough you give to me still!!
