“I will miss sitting and handing out candy with Great Grandma on Halloween”

-Carson (Great Grandson, 8 years old)

Picture taken 10/31/17, the last year he got to hand out candy with Great Grandma...... feeling sad that I didn’t get a picture of him and gram that night 😢

It’s been 16 days since you left the physical world, I sure do miss you. 

I will never forget the very last day we spent together, the day you passed, just 11 hours after I left. We had a great time, laughing and catching up on the latest gossip, talking about food and ice cream (ice cream was your all time favorite, well and chocolate too) and reminiscing about pops. You brought up Christmas and told us that you wanted lots of cute elephant (ones with trunks lol) figurines, I’m sad that we won’t get the opportunity to make your Christmas wish come true. 

Thank you for always being there for everyone. Life won’t be the same without you here, there is SO much that I am going to miss about you. Until we meet again!!!! I love and miss you SO SO much. 

**This is my all time most favorite 
     picture of us**

The first and the most memorable story that I recalled when I thought of writing a card to Janet was to remind her of the time I flew down to Florida  for Christmas.  I arrived almost an hour after Jon had gotten in a terrible automobile accident.  He joined the Hannewalds and myself for the rest of the vacation. 
Even though that was not the greatest moment to remember,  it was what happened at the end of the trip that I remember the most.  Janet, Dawn, Mike, Aarron, and Christy all left two days early to drive home and get everybody back to college and high school.   However, there was a massive snowstorm and it ended up taking them about 3 days to get home.   My plane ride home was two days later,  so I ended up hanging out with Jay and Bettie for the next couple of days by myself.   So here I was a long haired, two earing having, Grateful Dead following tennager.  I was sure this was going to be the worst two days of my life.  Let's not forget that  I wasn't even sure Jay even liked me as Dawn's boyfriend, and lets just say I was a little terrified.  Bettie however took me under her wing and was the most gracious host!  I sat with both of them and they told me every story they could remember about Mike, and of course Dawn.  I knew pretty much after that trip that I wanted to be part of their entire family if I could.  I just needed to convince Dawn to be part of mine.  The stories they told and the time we spent together that weekend was special.  I will always remember if with great joy.  I love you Gram, and say hello to Jay for me!

I remember having sleepovers at Gram’s house for my birthday and going birthday shopping. I loved the one in one time with her. It’s a tradition that my mom carried on with my kids and I will carry on with my grandkids. 

She was always there with a hug and a smile. 


From Kira: When me and Great-Grandma would sit on the couch, eating ice creams and watching Chopped. We always came up with cool food ideas using the ingredients , and we had so much fun. This was when she lived in my neighborhood and I would go over and pull weeds for her and help her out. I still bike by her old house sometimes, just to relive old memories



 I will always miss the  “Chore List” ,  or Mike’s to do list. Mom would tell Janet privately that we have to keep Mike busy because he will get too fidgety. Each one of those visits, I will always cherish. I am also proud of the fact that she trusted me with questions of financial matters. I am no great mind, but she knew if I didn’t know the answer, I would find out. She instantly became my Mom from the beginning.   Of course I always took the complements she gave me, such as “Mike you’ve really gained weight“, with humor. The daily talks between Janet and her mom on the phone were something I look forward to hearing about. Just listening to Janet and her mom talk about   The grandkids and the great grandkids, Brooke, Madeline, Luke, Bradley, Jayde and River was always part of the conversation.    I promised Jay, that when he passed I would look after her, and I hope I have lived up to those expectations. I will miss her along with everyone else who knew her.    Love Mike 

I have many wonderful memories of my Gram!  She has given me my inspiration for cooking with her recipes, cook books, and our many conversations about food.  Cassidy’s (my husband) favorite memory of Gram is when we watched a scary movie together and at the end she walked away into the garage by herself I asked her “Aren’t you scared to go alone?”  Her reply, “ Nah that movie was too unbelievable.”  We were stunned!  My daughters favorite memory is when Great Gram gave her a tiny turtle as a good luck charm.  We named her Murtle the Turtle and she still has her to this day “It’s very special to my heart,” says Jayde.  XOX She will be missed dearly.

Betty was truly a wonderful person and will be missed greatly by all that knew her.
I will miss talking with her about new TV programs and Fox News.
But I will miss mostly a good friend of more than 60 years.
She will always have a place in my heart.
Until we meet again.


Betty, I really cherished our family time we had together and for being such a loving mother-in-law to me and grandmother to Quin. Your presence will be missed but the many memories we have will live-on and strengthen the family Jackie & I are building together. 
Love you Betty
Bill


Betty will be missed dearly.  She was a good friend. Her family was so lucky to have such a loving person in their lives.  May they find comfort in knowing she touched everyone she came in contact with.  MISS HER...

She was such a nice sweet person. Ever since our son became a part of her family she always made us feel welcome. I know she will be missed so much by all that were a part of her life. We are blessed that we got to know her.

Daryl and Laura Hershey

Mom,

You gave me so many sweet memories and so much love. What a wonderful family we have, such a beautiful life you gave us. You always looked at the bright side of things. It was a blessing to have you as a mother and a best friend. It was a long journey with lots of twists and turns. I will miss you more than words can say, it makes me smile when I think of you in heaven with Dad and all of our loved ones. 

Rest in peace,
Love, 
Jackie

♥️ Miss my beautiful sweet Mom.   She always had so much love for her children and many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. I will miss our daily phone chats and her laugh.   She never forgot the many birthdays or failed to inquire about one child or another.   She is now at peace and with the love of her life, my Dad.  

Love you Mom♥️
