Dear Aunt Joan's Family, Just a quick note of love and sympathy to each of you. Am sorry that I will be unable to join with you as I have a wedding in OHIO to witness the day of the funeral. So it is in the preaching business. Needless to say A Joan was a dear to me and as she aged became grandma brunner over and over again. Her hearty laugh and love of her family and of course her faith are wonderful memories, my time on sabbatical gave me a chance to hook up with her in a special way. Luv, Bryan

Bonnie and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Your Mom was a very special Lady and will be greatly missed. I know you are all grateful for the time you had with her and all the very special memories that you all share. Since I lot my Mom only 5 months ago, I can surely relate to your loss. God Bless each and every one of your family as you grieve for your loved one but as we all know she is in a much better place. Love, Marg Jackson and family.

MOM I MISS YOU , I KNOW YOU STAYED AS LONG AS YOU COULD , AND I KNOW YOU ARE FREE AND WITH DAD AND ROGER. YOU GAVE ME A LIFE TIME OF MEMORIES. I just want you to know us kids will stay in touch and I know that your hand will always be on us. We couldn't have asked for a better mom ,you're the best. I love you with all my heart. Tanya

Grandma I miss you so much!!!! But I know your in a better place and with grandpa and uncle roger and knowing that makes me happy!!!! On June 25th, at 11:15pm, I couldnt sleep at all and words started to pop into my head and i wrote them into a song!!!! "Better Place Called Heaven" Verse 1: I remember when I was little you used to tell me about this place, this magical place. I always pictured it with mansions back to back and every street covered in gold. It was the better place called Heaven. Chorus: Now you're up there having so much fun. I can't wait till I'm up there with you enjoying the time with Jesus in Heaven. Even though its hard to know that you're gone, I know you're in that better place called Heaven Verse 2: Going to church and being able to sit next to you was so much fun. Having a large family, it was kind of hard, but every chance I got, I sat next to you and I watched you sometimes, and I loved seeing you praise Jesus and now you're praising Him in person. Back to Chorus: Verse 3: At your funeral it was hard to say goodbye. I couldn't look at anyone that day. Then I started to think that you're in the place you told me about when I was little, the better place called Heaven. Back to Chorus: Bridge/Ending: I miss your and I'll always love you. And I can't wait to be with you again someday in that better place called Heaven I love you Grandma and I can't wait to see you again someday!!!!!

Dear Cousins and family. I'm sorry I'm terribly slow at getting something to you in the way of words of sympathy. Then again, some times after the hubbub of the funeral and arrangements and such have faded and the quiet reality of a loss settles in, a note then can lift one's spirits. I hope that is the case today. Please know you have all been in my thoughts and prayers for many weeks. Its so hard to let go, but we trust the angels have welcomed her to heaven where is reunited with Uncle Marvin and cousin Roger and many others. Her love of family, and faith in a better day ahead stand out in my memory. I'm grateful she was able to come see mom a couple of years back with Nathan and Teresa. God Love You All . Dennis

We are so sorry to hear of your great loss! We just found out or we would have been there. Words cannot express our hearts at times like these. Know that we keep your family in prayer and pray that our Lord lifts you all up until you meet again. Sue Polson and my mom
