I REMEMBER JOYCE FROM BASSETT SCHOOL AND BRANCH STREET . MAY YOU REST IN PEACE DICKIE LANE
We knew her as Gram the kind of grandmother anybody would want! She adopted our oldest son so to speak as his grandparents lived out of State. She loved our son so that she made him home made potato chips. That was very special to him. Forever in our hearts you will be Gram may you rest in peace the beautiful Angel you are !! Karen Osborne
When we find the hand that will dry the tears that the heart is crying- theres but one place to go, & that is to God & dropping all pretense & pride, we can pour out our problems without restraint & gain strength, with him at our side- (Isa. 25 8) May Jehovah bless you & keep you. (Num. 16) (John 3 6 24) Remember we have the hope of seeing our loved ones again at the resurrection.
I miss you and daddy so much ! Nothing fills the void of losing you 2 ! I tell the kids about you 2 almost every day
