I am so very sorry to hear about sweet Jane's passing. We meet her and Jack at Cozy Ridge Campgrounds. Both were such sweet darlings. I kept in contact with her after Jack's passing and they had to stop camping. Please know that she loved her family and dogs dearly. May the Lord hold her and your family in his loving arms. And your memories get you through the tough times ahead. If there anything that I can do to help out. Please give me a call. Love and prayers. Brenda and Tim.

My thoughts are with you all. I remember your mom back in the band camp days , she was the best band mom! Then years later our paths crossed as she watched the neighborhood kids...daniel and heather and the gang!! Great lady, she will be missed but I know many who are better people for knowing her, myself included. Take care, Kim Petrella Ross

Mom Bryan, you were definitely the best mother-in-law that anyone could have had - always loving and supportive, and never heard a judgmental word come out of your mouth! I have always treasured our times together, and will look forward to seeing you again when the time comes! Thank you for being you!
