Dear John and Family,
I was so saddened to hear of Earline's passing. I was privileged to have her as my first boss years ago at Montgomery Ward. We only saw each other a few times since 1978, one of the last being on Jerilyn's wedding day when I delivered her cake and a few yrs. back in a store. Earline was such a wonderful lady and I have such fond memories of her. My deepest sympathy to you all.

Words cannot describe who Mrs. Doose(Grandma) was. And so words also cannot describe the loss that is being felt by her passing. To her family, my love to each and every one of you. Until we meet again.

Dear Family, Just wanted you to know that I want to be there with you so badly, to share your pain. I am just so thankful that you all got to come here a few years ago and we had so much fun with all of you. Great memories! We are so thankful that Sis's suffering is over even tho it is so hard to lose her. I can only imagine what a nightmare it was for all of you too. Praise the Lord she is in a better place! Our heart is broken right along with all of yours. We will hold you close in thought and prayer. May God keep you in his care. Love to all, Shirlene and Larry
