Mom would have been celebrating her 100th birthday last Sunday, June 19, 2022. She will always be in our hearts and missed more than words can express. 

Miss you my love with all my heart

Love and Miss You Grandma ❤️❤️❤️

Love you Grandma and miss you very much.

Miss you Mom

Her angel's face, As the great eye of heaven shined bright, And made a sunshine in the shady place. I love you Grandma!!!

Missing you today and every day. Watching over Grandpa until you can again one day.

Sending hugs. kisses and love to you in Heaven today Mom. It's hard to believe it has been a year since God called you home. There are no words to express how much we miss you and can only find comfort in knowing that you are in a better place.

Happy birthday to my lovely Grandmother in heaven. You are so missed and loved today and every day. We have so many lovely memories of birthdays and celebrations that I will cherish forever. We miss you everyday and I light a candle tonight in your honor. I love you forever. Rae Anne

Uncle Al, I always had such a great time visiting with Elrine and you Al. She was such a wonderful lady and I miss her very much. I found this poem and thought of you Al. It is called
I'M FREE
Don't grieve for me for now I'm free,
I'm following the path God laid for me.
I took his hand when I heard him call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone will stay that way,
I found that peace at close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh a kiss,
Ah yes, these things I, too, will miss.
But not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life has been full, I've savored much.
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all to brief
Don't lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your heats and share with me,
God wanted me now, He set me free.

Jackie... thank you for your beautiful words. We lit a candle for grandma tonight.

Missing You Grandma

I've left this little card Grandma
Just so you will know,
I love and miss you
More than you could know.

You were so very caring
So loving and so kind,
And anywhere you went
There was a rainbow there to find.

You played a big part of my life
And even though you are gone,
The respect and love
I have for you
Will go on and on.

Love you Grandma

Your courage, your smile, & your beautiful role model for all woman. I knew you for over 40 yrs. & will always remember you as a woman's woman, elegant, & classy, you are very missed.❤️

I am up in grass valley visiting my dear grandfather who took such wonderful care of my grandma! We miss her dearly and take comfort in knowing she is in a better place without fear, pain or worry.

Your smile, Elrine, lites up everything and everyone around you. You, the perfect hostess, giving laughing ~ I think you fed me a lot too ~ Holidays, Sundays, Fridays too. You watched Vicki and me as we came of age and even before. Always so nice to be around. My heart holds a special place for my Elrine.....and for my Al who put up with all us women for a long long time. A great husband, friend, host with patience and humor. I always, always wear my gold hoop earrings you gave me for 1962 graduation. They just go with me cause I like them the most.

For Vicki & Dan ~ I too know the heartbreak of losing mom. Even though it was much kinder to let go, we have them in our spirit to hold and talk to forever. I toast and celebrate Elrine. Thanks for sharing your family. So many memories....Love

Even though I only met my Aunt Elrine a few times.. Her being in California and coming to Minnesota only occasionally still remembered her being so nice and such a beautiful woman. Sympathy to Al and family xx
