Her family was always showered with many hugs and kisses upon arrival and departure as she fondly would say, See you later doll baby. Hmmm I love you. The family wishes to extend their sincerest thanks and deepest gratitude to her friend, Elizabeth VanBeenen with whom Grandma spent many many hours playing cards and reminiscing. And to RN Annette Pellens and staff at the Westchester Home on Spruce St. who provided Grandma a home away from home with their great home cooking and personal attention. Dont grieve for me now for I am free. Im following the path God has laid you see. I took His hand when I heard Him call. He made it easy to walk away from it all. I could not stay another day. God and I knew it was better this way. I know my parting has left a void, but please fill it with remembered joys. A friendship shared, a laugh, a hug, a kiss. Oh yes, these things I too will miss. Be not burdened with times of sorrow. I wish all of you the sunshine of tomorrow. My lifes been full, I savored much. Good friends, good times, and your loving touch. I know my time may seem all too brief, but dont lengthen it now with undo grief. Lift up your hearts and peace to thee. God wanted me now; He set me free! I love you all dearly, please dry your tears. Rejoice for me as Im spending Christmas with Jesus this year. Legacy.com Published in the Bakersfield Californian on 12/6/2005.
