    Grandma, you will always be in my heart and I will make sure my kids know about you and how special you was. It still feels unreal that your gone! Still hoping I wake up and it all was just a dream. I have so many memories that I will forever cherish and will keep close to my heart. One memory I will always remember and will be sure to tell my children is when you use to babysit me when I was younger and we heard sirens going off like there was a tornado and you threw me under the matress lol and come to find out It was just Mitchell winning a game lol all the police cars and fire trucks came by your house honking from where they won lol you always did make sure us kids was safe. I love you grandma and I cant wait for the day I get to see you and hear your voice again! You can finally meet my little Kyler :)

    We were deeply saddened to learn of Eva's passing. She was the best neighbor we could ever have had and she was always a joy to be around.. Her loss will leave a great void but our hope is that the memories of her will sustain you and bring you comfort today and in all of your tomorrows. Our prayers are with all of you at this very difficult time.

    Eva was such a dear soul. I loved talking with her at the family reunions and anytime I would run into her. We always shared a laugh or two. I will forever remember her ornery personality and her young-at-heart disposition. She will forever remain in my heart.
