The world and so many people are certainly better because they had her in their lives. She and your Dad are so happy to be back together now. What a legacy you have. My Deepest Sympathy to each of you but I know that your memories will carry you through. Love, RoseMarie IBlair Cheney acscomp@qwest.net Randy, Larry, Janae, and Jill: I was so sad to hear you had lost your Mom. I am remembering all the good times and love she showed to me whenever I was at your Mom and Dads. One of the benefits of getting older is you realize that its all of the people you've encountered in life who have molded you into what you have become. Your Mom was a great one for showing us all how to life and enjoy life, she will be missed by all who knew her, may Heavenly Father comfort you, in your loss, but also give you joy that she is reunited with your Dad. We are losing so many of the old Ammon folks there soon will be none left, except in our own memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Blair Cheney
