Sincerely, Mike Lambert Roger Hodges cuthere1@hotmail.com I wish to express my feelings of loss and sympathy to all of you "children." I lost my father when I was about 4-3/4 years old. Ira Lindsay was so nice to me. He made me feel good about myself and inspired me to work hard even when work was unpleasant. For many years up to his death he remembered me and showed interest in me. I am glad that I was able to attend his funeral, though we don't like to have our loved ones depart. I always thought your Mom to be such a beautiful and regal lady. I am blessed to have been aquainted with the Lindsay family. Bless you with comfort, understanding, love and courage. Best Wishes, Roger Hodges Jolene & Larry Jacobs Sorry to hear of the loss of your mother. She was always a classy lady and I enjoyed being around her. I remember fun times staying at your home with Colleen when we were young. She was always kind to me. May the Lord bless all of you this Christmas Season. I know how hard it is to be an orphan. Love from Jolene (Cromwell) and Larry Jacobs Joseph Wood wood_joe@yahoo.com Dear Family; Very sorry to hear your Mother passed away and I miss her very much. I live at #9 and am always shoveling the snow off for her every winter. My Mother passed away at age 92 on November 27th in Bismarck, ND. I am praying for your mother and my mother too. Joe Wood No. 9 Carol Stephens carolstephens6@beyondbb.com I only met Evron two or three times in my life, but could recognize through her sweet spirit the wonderful person she is. I'm sorry for the rather long injury and suffering she's had to endure these last several months, but know that she is now happy and joyous to be with those of her loved ones who have proceeded before her to their eternal reward. Please take comfort in that knowledge and know that my thoughts and prayer are with each of you during this difficult transition period. Love, Carol Stephens (Karen Walker's Mom) Wendy wejowe@cableone.net I had the pleasure to get to know your mother at Life Care, I worked noc (night shift). I was glad to work the last shift and speak with her and the family, when she was to go home. What a wonderful family she raised, she was so proud of you all. I lost my grandfather just a month ago, it is hard when we have family passing. But know that they will be watching over us. For Your Mother: Though her smile is gone forever, And her hand you cannot touch, You still have her many memories, Of the one you loved so much. Her memory is your keepsake, With which you'll never part, God has her in his keeping, You all have her in your hearts. God bless your family at this time and through the years. Dixie & Kent Shelley dixie_shelley@yahoo.com TO CAROLL WALKER: Caroll - I was so taken back to see that your mom had passed away. Paula said she wasn't doing well, but for some reason I just didn't think she was that old. She never seemed "old" to me. I have told you this before, but I've always cherished your Mom. So very sweet, honest, caring and a smile that was ever present no matter what was going on. You were so lucky to have her throughout your life, but she has also graced so many others - including me. Thinking of you at this time. God Bless!! Dixie & Kent Shelley
