I had no idea this happened till today. She was an amazing woman. She had a wonderful heart of gold.i had the privilege of getting to know this lovely woman at Ken bowl when I was in the leagues there. She had become like a mother to me and had gotten me through the roughest part of my life. She will be missed so much. She has been thought about everyday over the years. I loved her more than life itself and still do to this day.

I can sit here and remember her as a DEN MOTHER in Cub Scouts. Getting us to do all the things that you do as a cub . She was a great friend then and even latter she still know me when I stopped by one day to just say Hi. Jerry, Mick and Rob I know that you will miss her very much.Just remember tht she touched many others also.

Meem, 
You were absolutely the best! You had to be tough as nails raising 4 boys. And at the same time you really are one of the kindest, most caring, compassionate, loving, forgiving and patient  women I've ever know.
Best bowling coach in history ! "Out, down, back and roll. Finish your follow up like you're shaking hangs. No matter what I was playing you were there to be my loudest  and proudest cheerleader. Never missed a game. 
Meem, all the dice and skipbo games we played that were so much fun. You made sure we  had fun and were good sports.

All the wonderful holidays that we all were there celebrating together. You putting out your decorations and having fun games for all of us to play. And who could forget The Goodie Bags, everybody got one.

And as I got older getting to just sit and talk to each other. The bond you had with my kiddos truly warms my heart. You have taught me so much Meem. You have the kindest most caring soul of anyone I've met. 

Meem, I will have you in my heart Forever!!

Love,
Kelly Girl

Love you Mrs. O.. Thank you for making me the bowler I was and thank you from the bowling industry. You were a special person with more children than just your blood ones. Your smile was the light of the house. God has a special person beside him today. Will never forget you. THANKS

You will always be in my heart. I will miss you greatly! Love you now and forever.

Love You with all my heart Mom you will always be with me, miss you already.

I always felt better about "me" when i was with Mrs. Owen. She paid attention and i never felt like she was thinking of something else when we were talking. I will miss this caring and thoughtful neighbor.  My heartfelt condolences to her Mr. Owen and her beautiful family.
