Mom....

I will miss you very much! No matter what the occasion, be it birthdays, graduations, etc. you always made time to bake a cake or pie of our choice, delicious dinners or sending a gift. I especially remember the time when I was in VietNam how you sent those care packages which meant so much to me and my buddies. Thank you for all the wonderful years and memories. I will always love you!

Dear Heimsath Family,

It has been wonderful knowing all of you for 27yrs and to Lou. The times I was at her house in Florida she always had pie and cake for us. We always remembered each others birthdays and wrote a few lines to each other and she was so kind to me when my Billy died. I know they are both in heaven now. All of our families together with the Lord.

Love,

Pat

To the family, you are in our thoughts and prayers at this time. Granny was a special woman who held a very special place in my sister, Linda's heart. She treated her as her own daughter.

She always extended her kindess to my family as well. We will miss her but know one day we will all be together.

to the Heimsath family:

40 plus years ago I became one of suesies grade school chums.Suesies mom was not mom, but grannie. Having 7 kids in the family the ages were wide spread.My memories of grannie were her in her uniform during the day and crocheting in her chair in the eve. I just loved to be asked to stay for dinner as everyone else did !! Somehow Suesie even talked grannie into making me bacon sandwiches for lunch at St. mikes,mmmm my favorite. When she moved back to Il. I got to know her all over again, ya know she was the same mom,grannie,sweetie as I had remembered. I'm so proud of Suesie for taking such good care of her mom aka grannie.I'm Very sure grannie is receiving ALL that heaven has to offer. We will all meet again, may she rest in peace

Granny... It's funny, someone that didn't know her wouldn't understand what exactly the name granny really symbolizes to those who loved her...for those here that do not, I will enlighten... caring, loving, understanding, patient, a great cook, a funny person, a lovely unselfish friend and above all to me... what a Grandmother truly is...

All Anna's & my love forever...

To the Heimsath family,

I was saddened to read about the death of your mother, Susie and Donna. I'm sorry I didn't know the rest of your family, but I do remember what a kind person your mom was. When we were at Sacred Heart H.S and I lived at the school, I would choose to spend many weekends at your house in Orland. I felt so welcomed and so at home there. Your mom always made me feel like one of her own kids. To this day I put an extra tablespoon of flour in my chocolate chip cookie recipie - a trick she taught us on one of those weekend visits.

Most vivid in my memory is the offer she made to my parents and me of living at your house my Sophomore year at Sacred Heart when the dorms closed. A kindness I have never fogotten.

My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. Even after all these years, I remember her as a very special lady.

My best to you all.
