To Georgia,JaeDee Ann, Brenda,Julie.
My thought and prays go out to all of you and the family. I am so sorry I could not make it up from Fl. I will miss Aunt Renne greatly. I remember when u all would come over to our house(Aunt Laura's) and when it was time to go Aunt Renne would get all the kids into the car and then the talking would being. JaeDee, Brenda Julie u all know what I mean. Our mom's would start talking and after an hour or so one of u would turn off the car and one by one u would get out of the car and we would start playing again. Then Aunt Renne would say"u kids get back into this car I am ready to go" but we knew this was not true, cause as soon as our moms started talking again it was on!!!! And in a half hour u kids would be back out playing with Darla,Billy Brenda & Dustin.
And the lunch's we would have in the aspargas fields, how Aunt Renne could make any thing fun. NO matter what. She will be greatly miss by one and all but we all know she is happier now and with Gayle and my Victoria Lynn taking care of them. Please e-mail me if u just need to talk about the old days or anything.
Love u all cuz.
Brenda Joyce

To Georgia, Brenda, Julie, Aunt Marian and all the other wonderful family members who I have had the privledge of meeting, Thank you so much for allowing me to be lucky enough to be involved with your wonderful mama. She was a wonderful, wonderful lady with a heart as big as the world. She loved every one of you with every ounce of her being and, in return, she was one of the most loved ladies in the world. As much as I know you will miss her, you can be at peace knowing that your love filled every second of her life. She never suffered and think of the wonderful reunion in heaven for her and Gayle. Oh, the stories she must be sharing! I loved your mama and will treasure the beautiful picture that you gave me and I will never forget her. I am sorry I was out of town for her services but my heart remains with you. Nan

I was sadden by the passing of Rinnie. She was a special lady. We were such good friends at Slack School. She came to Hank's funeral so we had an opportunity to talk and catch up. I am so happy I got to see her then. I know she will be missed by so very many people as she was a person that people gravitated to. My deepest sympathy goes out to all that loved her.

Aunt Rinnie was a very strong lady and she fought hard against the cancer. Her family can be very proud of her as she never gave up. I weep with great sorrow at her passing but rejoice in knowing that she is no longer suffering. She will be missed by many, but I know she will live on in my heart and my memory. My thoughts and paryers are with all you girls and your families. Call me if you need anything at all. Love Darla
