Beth, I am sorry for the passing of your Mother. I know, (even though she is with Christ and Gerald,) her passing is a difficult thing for you. May the grace of God fill and overfill the void left in your life and heart by the passing of your Mother. May God bless you and the family.
May God bless your soul with a special place in heaven.
I have fond memories of Aunt Juanita growing up in Centerville. I'll always remember her saying 'stand up tall, be proud of your height!' I also remember those wonderful home made from scratch white cakes, warm out of the oven! Oh how wonderful it smelled and how wonderful it tasted! Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family in this time of sorrow. She is now walking with God and other loved ones we've lost in the past.
To My Beloved Great-Grandmother, There are so many memories I have of you and our time together, but my fondest memories are of my visits to see you as a child. Our entire family would gather from all parts of the world to be with you and Grandpa during holidays and special family reunions. I remember sitting at the dining room table during those times watching you effortlessly make your way through the kitchen, providing the most delicious meals I can ever remember enjoying. Your home provided endless hours of adventures for all of the Grandkids; Easter egg hunts, hide-and-seek and competitive Billiards tournaments in the basement, just to name a few. It was a place where I was able to build relationships with my distant family and also where I gained a true and clear understanding of what family is all about. For these and many more memories, I thank you. I can't tell you how grateful I am to have known you and to have been able to be a part of your legacy. Your grace, love and beauty will live on in the memories I'll always cherish.
Although I never had the opportunity to meet you in person, you live on through your wonderful family. Debbie is an amazing woman, friend, and colleague.- thank you for bringing her into this world to share with all of us. Colleen Kalynych
She raised 4 wonderful Christian children...........a great accomplishment in anybody's book! I'm confident she's enjoying a great reunion right now. I'm sure Gerald and Ron were there to greet her with open arms!
I remember your mother so well when I would see her in the store on the square. She always had a smile and a pleasant word. You will miss her, but may your memories be strong and good.
I have so many happy memories of Grandma. She will always be a part of me. )
Please accept our sincere sympathy and prayers, and may your loving memories give you peace.
Dear Staley Family, Your lovely obituary kept making me shake my head yes as so much was the Juanita I remember. I so much liked and respected her. I am thinking of you at the time, and I am praising God to know she is with Him.. In His love, Jean Beeler
