My wonderful Mother passed away May 22, 2011 at home. Her funeral was held May 28, 2011. I love her and miss her. She was everything a Mother should be. She is a beautiful Elect Lady.

This is my Mother and Father in 1937 when they were married - and in 198? when they were ready to go on a mission. This photo was displayed at Mother's Funeral May 28, 2011.

A special thanks to all our children who were able to be at Mother's services.
