Dear Carol, Bill and family: I will always have fond memories of being at Uncle Dave and Aunt Betty's and your mom and dad being there (women playing cards and men watching the game on the tv in the living room - same as when they were at Great Grandma and Grandpa Campbell's house in Hart) and at Ye Old. Know that they are all up there, playing penny-ante poker and talking about what wonderful children and grandchildren you are!
My love to you all. Sue
I am so happy I stopped to talk to Val that day on my walk at Silver Lake. We became instant friends /family from that day forward. I will keep our memories close to my heart. I will miss you dear friend.


My deepest sympathy Carol, David, Derek, Kerra, and Billy. She was loved by all of you so very much. She felt it every single day by all the things you did for her and all the time spent as a close-knit family. Her memory will never fade because of your true and undying love for her. May she rest in peace in our Dear Lord's presence.
