To my love Les and our children, grandchildren, family and friends,

Do not mourn as I am gone to a better place.  I am not walking alone, our mom is with me.  Our journey will be smooth up toward the road to eternal glory.  I ask the same request as our mom did. Take care of each other, love one another, stay focused, don’t lose sight of the good each of you possess.  Keep your faith, hope, and believe in balance.  We will be with you in spirit.  I love each and everyone of you.

Love, your wife, mother, grandmother and friend.   Janis
