Granny was a wonderful woman! Caring, generous, funny, witty and a delight to be around. She was always involved in our lives growing up and I have so many fond memories. Memories of the Germania Club and afternoons at her house. Gracious and loving, she will be missed.

Granny,

You were a beautiful, wise, worldly, sharp witted, wonderful, caring, loving and giving women who helped me in too many ways to list. I will miss you dearly and will never forget the things we have shared. You were in our family for a reason and I will always love you.

A Reminiscence

YES, thou art gone! and never more
Thy sunny smile shall gladden me;
But I may pass the old church door,
And pace the floor that covers thee.

May stand upon the cold, damp stone,
And think that, frozen, lies below
The lightest heart that I have known,
The kindest I shall ever know.

Yet, though I cannot see thee more,
'Tis still a comfort to have seen;
And though thy transient life is o'er,
'Tis sweet to think that thou hast been;

To think a soul so near divine,
Within a form so angel fair,
United to a heart like thine,
Has gladdened once our humble sphere.
