We hold precious memories of her in our heart until we see her again. Jane L. Jordin-Hansen Cecil and Della were wonderful friends and neighbors to my parents John and Faye Jordin. All of us kids used to ride horses and play together. I have many pleasant childhood memories of the Ball Family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you in the passing of a beautiful woman. With Sympathy, Jane Joan Hill Cheney jhcheney@msn.com Dear Family-- We would like to tell you that we loved your mother from the time we first became acquainted with her in Shelley, Idaho many years ago. We were friends of her children, we went to the same ward in Shelley, we went to Shelley High School together, she lived on Hitt Road not far from Joan and Von and then Della and Mom (Erma Cox) lived at Parkwood Meadows at the same time last year and Mom thought so highly of her. Mom is in the Rehab in I.F. so cannot be to the funeral. We are thinking of you. Love, Erma Cox and family -- Alene & Thayne Huntsman, Jean Robison, Joan and Larry Cheney, Val and Connie Robison, Mike and Peggy (West) Plankington, and Mel and Barbara Wheeler. Dale and Denise Huntsman riverbank@onewest.net We send our heartfelt sympathy to Allen and Betty and to Gary and Kathy and their families. You have been such dear friends through the years. It was so good to see you, Kathy. You look so good (and young)! Thank you, Allen and Betty for your service to us as Home Teachers and loving friends. God bless you all . . .
