She is preceded in death by husband, Roy, sisters Terrissia, Paula and Ruth, sister-in-law Marguerite, several brothers-in-law and parents Rolla and Lois Peace.

In lieu of flowers, please forward donations to your local animal shelter or the ASPCA.


You can Shed Tears or ...
by Unknown Author
You can shed tears that she is gone
or you can smile because she has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that she’ll come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all she’s left
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her
or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday.
You can remember her and only that she’s gone
or you can cherish her memory and let it live on
You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back
or you can do what she’d want:
smile,
open your eyes,
love
and go on.
