Mother:
I miss you more and more even though I know you are in a better place free of pain or suffering. You and Papa build a wonderful life full of love and happiness. You taught us all so much. Especially the importance of family and making time to get together for good food. Most of all you taught us to accept eachothers differences and that no matter what mistakes someone has made, they always deserve a second chance. I love you Mother and will always keep you in my heart.

Mother was a blessing to know. Though we only met her a few times, her love for her family was very evident. She had a meek and quiet spirit, formed by God's presence in her life. Her physical body is gone to Heaven, but her loving, caring, compassionate spirit lives on.... as seen in her children and grandchildren. She is still here with us. Just look at each other. :) Praying for all of you. With love.... Don and PJ Bahr, Rapid City
