Also, Steve Diehl and Chelsea Diehl, Candy Donham and cherished friends, Peggy, Margaret and Melvin, Barbara, Kristin, Lynda, Shelly, Kathlyn, Karmen, and Sunday School class members too numerous to mention. What can we say about Mother Nothing seems adequate. Her life was full. She was a ministers wife, private piano and voice teacher, vocal music teacher K-8, an English teacher of 6th-8th, a lover of poetry and quotations, her patriotism for our country was fierce and her love for Gods Word impacted each one of us for a lifetime. There was always a mouth-watering aroma of cookies coming from her kitchen. She adored her grandchildren and great-grands! She loved us deeply and always listened to us with her heart. Mom loved wearing bright colors, so to honor her, wear your favoritebecause as she recently said, "This will be no time for sadness, but for JOY!" "Death is not extinguishing the light. It is putting out the lamp because the dawn has come." Tagore Viewing will be Tuesday, January 15, 9am-9pm, with family present from 6-8pm at Mercer-Adams.
