John, Lois and family: Elsie was a lovely, fun-loving lady. She always had a smile on her face and enjoyed a good laugh. I'm sure she's dancing in heaven right now. Our thoughts and prayers are with all of the Wagner family. John, Joan and Blythe O'Sullivan

Dear Jane, Jim and Family
You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers. We, for one, know how hard it is to loose a parent. We pray that in time all of the good memories of her will keep your Mom alive and well in your hearts. It was a pleasure to have met her.

John,
I am very sorry to hear about your Mom. There are no words that can help ease the pain right now. I lost my Dad around Christmas and it was never the same after that. Whoever said "Time heals all wounds" was on the right track. In time it will be better. I am sorry I will not be able to attend the service. My thoughts are with you. I have a hard time with Moms leaving. I miss mine more everyday. Maylyn
