It's hard to believe you passed away when it only seems like yesterday you were putting a band aid on my arm after being shot by a BB gun that only left a red mark with a little sting. One of the many memories that will remain in my heart.

Patricia and Larry..I'm so sorry for your loss. Your mom was a wonderful women that had a very caring heart and a laugh that if you were across the other room and you heard it, you knew she was close by. She would help out any way she could and never had a bad thing to say about anybody. May she rest in piece in the heavens as she is all healed now and will always be smiling down upon us.
Heaven has gained a new angel!!

Thinking of you,

The Wince Family
