A beautiful Woman of God and a dear friend of my Mama Laura (Clippinger) Sirrine of Mattawan that also passed away in 2022. I pray that God's loving Holy Spirit be with you Jimmy Evonne and Steve during these trying time's ahead as you also say goodbye to your Dad. I'm very Thankful that your parents were a part of my young life so many year's ago, thank you for sharing your beautiful parents with so many young children.

Dear Jim & family: I'm saddened to read that your mom has passed. Take comfort in the happy memories over the decades and knowing she is very proud of you. I was in Kalamazoo for six days in early June but never got to Portage or I'd have popped in to say HI. Now in Florida full time and sequestered from "IAN" as he creeps up the Gulf Coast towards St. Petersburg. I will say a special prayer for your mom's soul and the comfort of all who love & miss her. "MAC"
