We, her daughters by marriage, loved her. She was there to welcome each new grandchild. She shared our joys and our sorrows and her prayers throughout her life were for her children and her grandchildren. Our lives have been enriched by her presence.
We now think of Mother
of stepping on the shores
and finding it Heaven.
Of taking hold of a hand
and finding it God's hand;
Of breathing a new air
and finding it celestial air;
Of feeling invigorated
and finding it immortality;
Of passing from storm
and tempest to an unknown calm;
Of waking and finding you're home.
Funeral services, under the direction of the Lamoni Funeral Home, were held Monday, January 28, 1980, at 11:00 a.m. from the Lamoni R.L.D.S. Church. Officiating were Elders Willard Moon and LeRoy Trammell. Burial was in Rose Hill.
