Our thoughts are with you during this difficult time. Mrs. Koen was a hard-working marvel, to say the least. She did so many things and gave piano lessons and cooked for half or more the families in Bellmead. She was the best to my brothers and myself while growing up across the street. We will miss her terribly.

Dear Ira Jo & Family

I am so sorry about your mother.
You are in my prayers. Your mother was an angel here on earth. I loved her dearly. She was such a blessing to me and a very dear friend. She was among the first
people that I met after moving to the Waco area and we became friends right away. It was as if we had know each other all our lives. I missed her so very much after moving bacck to K C MO.
But I am greatful that I was able to visit with her back in Dec of 2004 while on a visit back to Texas.
Your mother was a very special Lady and her reward will be great!

Love & Prayers
