Lighting a purple candle for you my friend, my Martron of Honor, God mother, and Jim Godfather to Our Amy, my clarinet buddy, ice skating with girls chasing boys, parties at camp, swimming at Township park, trips out of town with band, street dances, dances at Town hall, birthday parties, trading comic books, trips to library, lockers next to each other, sleep overs, baseball at 3rd street ball field, your mom allowing us to get a drink of water and calling home to tell parents where we were, ice skating under L’Anse in the huge culverts from Linden Creek out to Lake, dances in school gym, proms,Luther League, second sand beach, oh wow,,!! I can’t forget our years in 4-H and Girl Scouts and even leaders in our young married lives. So much laughter., My heart is thankful that you had Jim and Jack and three children that loved you, plus grandchildren. The last few years were so difficult for you but you had Sisu. You hung onto life. RiP. You are with Jesus and beloved family and friends. I know you are ok and so am I. Love you always DJ from BJ
