You are missed on a daily basis, just happy we had the time we did together and the memories and insight you shared with me … missing you 🩷

Went to Fenger with Heather . I didn't know her very well but you never heard an unkind word come from her. Praying for her family at this time.

I went to Fenger High School with Heather but I only had a gym class with her.  My deepest sympathy to Heather’s family and friends in her passing. She will truly missed.  

Dear family members,
    I grew up and was a classmate of Heather at Mt. Vernon school.  I remember her well, such a sweet and shy girl.  Please accept my sincere condolences.
May perpetual light shine upon her and may she rest in peace.

Trying to find the words is not easy.  I now have a  hole in my heart that was filled by Aunt Heather when we reconnected several years ago. I loved our daily chats and her incite and opinions on matters.  I loved that she was clever and funny.  I will be forever grateful that she planned for this day, knowing the importance of the pictures and letters that tell a story. Thank you for sharing those stories with me. Thank you for loving me back as I loved you ….

Rest In Peace dear friend.  Although it has bee almost 40 years since we have seen each other, our friendship has lasted for 60 years. Those memories of us as teenagers will bring me comfort in the days ahead. I will forever remember us playing records and you taping me singing.  Sorry my efforts to contact you were unsuccessful.  You are gone now but will never be forgotten.

I was shocked and saddened to hear of Heather's passing.  We were part of a group of friends at Illinois State University.  We always had crazy times and lots of fun back then.  Sadly after graduation we went our separate ways and ended up living in many different states of the US.  Our reunions were about every five years, but not everyone was able to attend due to distance or other circumstances.

I was able to visit with Heather via Facebook, but that was not very often either.  As her health declined it was even harder to communicate.

Rest in peace, Heather.  You will be missed and remembered with fondness.  

So sorry to hear of Heather's passing. I worked with her at Qwest Communications. She was a supervisor and always very pleasant and fun to be around. We were friends on Facebook and she was one of my best supporters! I will surely miss her. My prayers for Heather.
   Lovingly, Sue Herberg

Rest in peace Heather.  You visited us in Scotland many years ago, sorry we didn't get to meet up again in more recent years.  With love from your Scottish cousin Dianne xx


Heather brought joy to the days I spent sharing our my days at Ma Bell

I knew Heather from our years of working at Ma Bell. She was a strong presence that many knew they could depend on. She was always looking out for those she supervised and befriended with genuine caring and support when needed. Many have remained her good friends in life after Qwest.  She will be remembered with fondness and good stories will be shared of our younger, happy days together. Peace be with her family and friends.
