My sincere sympathy to Mrs. Fitts and the entire Fitts family. She was a nice neighbor on Grace Terrace for many years. I found her to be a strong independent woman who quietly went about her life. Blessings to all!

Mom I'll always love you. You took care of me when times were tough.

Love,
Fred E. Fitts, III

Minnette was such a wonderful cheerful person.I enjoyed my time spent with her  giving her perms and doing her hair. We had long chats while eating our Werther's Butterscotch candies she had quite a sweet tooth.
She will be missed.

To my most beautiful aunt best friend and sister to my mother Beatrice Sears. As a child I will always remember our great memories we had together. You will be in my heart forever. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your children.

Patrice and I send our prayers and thoughts to all of you. She will always be in your hearts and never forgotten.   Gunnar and Patrice 

YOU WILL BE MISSED  SHE WAS A GREAT SISTER I ENJOYED STAYING WITH HER WHEN I WAS IM SENDING HER PRAYERS LOVE ISABELL


My mother was the cream of the crop, she would look at life as a adventure and never would talk bad about others. If her kids did she would explain things in only a way a mother can about real life. My mother had her hands full with 6 kids and also with a husband who traveled for his job and even uprooted us all to another state,  put extra hardship on Mom.. She never complained but said you boys have chores to do and we did them .  My Mom would tell me of times when she was a little girl on her parents farm and also about their animals and she loved horses.  She knew I loved the outdoors and supported me in being a camping/ hunter and outdoors person.  I worked at a young age and one of my jobs was a being a paperboy and had 60 customers on my route. My Mom when I got sick delivered my papers for me, she was the best.  I also mowed lawns and my Mom would tell her friends to hire me... Awesome Mom that helped me make money in many jobs, she would take me to dairy farm to work and then when Grocery store was hiring she got me job when I was 16 there... Mom would take me to a little diner called Pigley Wiggley  after doctor or denist appointments to get the best hot dogs ever.  Mom like to laugh and make things fun , she started cutting our hair and I was first up and she was not sure how to use clippers so when she did first pass on top of my head I heard a bad noise and then my mother was laughing then went off to get something.. My Mom took elmers glue and tried to glue my hair back on that she gouge out.. She couldn't stop laughing , so I washed out hair and came back and told her cut me bald and we both laughed about it... Oh Mom you were so much fun to be around with your stories about your family and about my Dad .... Memories that will never be forgotten.... When I left for military she cried and I told her , I will be Ok Mom and they will shave my head again LOL...   Mom wrote me at all military duty stations with such great stories of home. Love you MOM ...

Mom was a very special mother in law to me. I will always remember the special times we shared when we visited her and when she would come down to visit us. She would always take my side when Ren and I would have an argument. She was the best. Mom you will be truly be missed by so many. Rest In Peace till we meet again. Love you Patsy

When I was young I had many health problems, severe allergies and orthodontic surgeries. My Mom would have to pull me out of school and take me to all of the appointments necessary to resolve my ongoing issues. After these appointments she would always take me somewhere for lunch and some Mom-child time. It always made me feel important and cared for. She heaped this same personal touch on all of my brothers and sisters as well. I also remember how she would take us all clothes shopping before the start of a new school year. It was never easy for her because all we wanted to do is be obnoxious and fight with one another. My parents bought a travel trailer when we were young and we spent summer vacations  as a family in it. We would go fishing and swimming by day and make smores over the campfire at night. We would vacation at many of the Adirondacks Park Lakes and Family Theme Parks as well as the Thousand Islands and St. Lawrence River. Our  Mom and Dad would make us Banana Splits every Sunday night, it was hard to make a half gallon of Neapolitan Ice Cream stretch to eight people. We would all sit in the living room to eat our ice cream and watch the Ed Sullivan Show. There is to many great memories to record here but, I just want all to know that my mother lived up to the title of being one of the Greatest Generation! I will always Remember and Love You Mom.
