My Grandmother was my role model for the majority of my life. She was hard working, beautiful, always put together, home was always kept clean (the smell of bleach still makes me happy because I know its clean), homemade goodies, fresh hot coffee, great food, her smile, her hands.. I loved everything about her. We would go have breakfast with her friends; " pancake with peanut butter, please."She taught me how to make bread (dumplings), I remember doing laundry with wash tub and ringer and hanging the clothes to dry. And going to the bakery with her.. still love the smell of homemade bread. And even though she was a strong and.sometimes tough woman, she loved.. she loved Grandpa, my Mom and I know she.loved me. She was there for everything in my life and has shaped me into being the woman and mother I am today. Words cannot express how fortunate I feel to have had so many years with her. Until we meet again, Love always, Amy Jo

Grandma 'Beans' will be missed greatly. She was the best Grandma that anyone could have asked for. I have such fond memories of all of the summers that my brother Jeff and I spent with both her and Grandpa 'Hanky'. She loved to play Scrabble and card games with us. She was also the very best cook and baker! Always having homemade meals and home baked treats for us. Thankful that you are joining Grandpa in Heaven but we will miss you. Forever in our hearts. Love you Grandma!!!!!
