Aug. 1, 1917 -  Oct. 25, 2007

What can you say about a woman who had such a tough life. She did it all herself and was very proud of the fact that she built 2 homes.

She had many  many friends during her 90 years, but I do believe at the

end she out lived most of them.

She loved her cats very much.

She retired after many years of working at Esco.

She stayed in her 2nd home she built in 1971 until she died on

Oct. 25, 2007 in the hospital.

I believe she was ready and waiting to be with Jesus.

She has peace now with Jesus and no more stress or hardship in her life.

I love you Oma,

Oh Grandmother of so many that you did not know

how sad it is that you had to go

Even though you had 90 years

When you left there were many tears

our lives went separate but not in our hearts

We lived in the same world but were worlds apart

You grew old in your home, alone and afraid

with a house full of people running about

you would sit in your chair firm and stout.

You tried to enjoy life the best you could.

You traveled the world as I understood and you love to share the stories

and you beholded  many many a glorys

Those were your special moments I am sure

of your life of 90 years

Even in your 80's you were taking those trips

even though the last one ended in tears.

Times were tough for you in the end

you tried to live each day to the fullest  and would learn about him

Jesus was what you had, thank God for that

He got you through all the hard times I am sure.

But we all knew there was alot you had to endure.

We had many good times, then as we grew older our time was denyed

My brothers and sisters all missed having you in their lives

as did all of their children, there was so much love out there for you

What happened in your life that made you not see that you were due

I am so sorry you missed out on all that LOVE..

    I do love you Oma and I really do miss the good times that we had.

And I will always be greatful we had the time we had

But I do know you have found your happiness up above!

I will never forget you with all of my love. 

God Bless You Love Janice
