Sharon, My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Your Mom was the sweetest lady. Peace be with you. Love, Dianne
So sorry for your loss. Let memories of the good times help ease your grief.
• “Family and friends in your life are like pillars on your porch. Sometimes they hold you up … and sometimes they lean on you. And at times, it is comforting to recognize that sometimes it’s just enough to know they’re standing by.”
A special thanks for your love and support over the years. Both you and Uncle Pete were always our favorites! Aunt Joan, rest in peace!
Our prayers certainly go out to John, Sharon, Charlene and Mary … as well as their families and loved ones.

MaryJean and Walt Kelly want to offer our
condolences to all our second cousins and
families for the passing of my oldest first
cousin’Joannie’. When we lived with aunt
Mary and Uncle John she would look
after me. She set an example to us
little guys. I remember attending her
wedding to Pete as she set out on her
new lifes journey as mother grandmother
then great grandmother. She now resides
in all of her family on earth as she rejoins
Pete for all eternity.
God Bless her.
—Cousin Walt who she called ‘Wally’
