Mike, Tim & families, I was so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. I have so many wonderful memories of your mom, Merrill and my parents together over the years. Especially Friday nights at the VFW. I will always remember her kindness, sense of humor and her beautiful smile. She will be missed. Gail (Fitzer) & Bill Carli

Mike and Tim
My heartfelt condolences on the loss of your Mom. Though I didn't know her well, I remember her as a warm and kind person. I had a chance to speak with her at Fr. Gerold's funeral and we had a lovely conversation - I was so impressed with her. In sympathy

Joanne was such a sweet and kind woman. I'll never forget the first time she decided to join the Chorale group - she was shy and afraid she wouldn't fit in. Boy did she ever fit in. Funny, kind, sweet, just a few words to describe this wonderful woman. We were so sad to see her leave choir and move away. But Joanne was always in our thoughts and prayers.
Rest in God's loving arms Joanne and say Hi to my husband when you see him in Heaven. Hugs to Joanne's family.

Grandma Joanne~we will miss you at Aiden's 3rd birthday party...at the birth of your great-grand daughter in April... the Humphrey's Fourth of July celebrations, only to mention a few! it seems like we have known you longer than we have. The first time was at Michelle's graduation when Brandon was in Afghanistan. (I was so worried if everyone would like me....& if I would fit into your family??)Well....Grandma Joanne~when I met you, I felt very accepted & knew how lucky Brandon was to be dating Michelle. You were sweet, spunky and funny! Loved hearing about your early nursing days~ I know you are at peace & have gone to heaven. Please keep an extra watchful eye on Michelle (& her family) during these next few weeks. If you have any connections... bless them with a guardian angel. Our life was blessed to have known you! We will miss you!❤To your family~we share in your sorrow & loss. Blessings & love, Kelly & Cole Humphreys

We are shocked and saddened over our unexpected loss of Grandma Joanne. We are certain that her family and friends who paved her way to Heaven were waiting for her at God's gate. We are also sure that Missy was waiting for her at The Rainbow Bridge - because we're certain that "all dogs go to Heaven".
