Wayne loved his mothers peanut butter cookies and he knew I did too. She would bake extras so that he could share.
Laurie, Gary and family, you are blessed with so many sweet memories.

Dear Grandma,You will be greatly missed. I´m so thankful for all the years we shared. I can never thank you enough for all the wisdom you´ve shared and the love you showed. I know you´ve missed Grandpa so much these years and you probably were talking to Jesus to surprise Grandpa for his birthday on Sunday when you left us on Friday to plan for a surprise birthday for him. I feel honored to have held your hand one last time till Christ took your other hand to lead you home. Till we see each other one day, you will be missed and your memories cherished. Love you grandma.
Your grandson,Michael
