Tom and Tina, you have a piece of my heart this week as you usher Mom off to heaven. You know vastly better than any of us how you were graced with a saint of a woman. We will all miss her, and I hope I can see you in a visit to the Farm in Collinsville this June 13-15.
Always, John Kennedy

Tom, Tina
I am so sorry to hear of your loss. You and your family as well as your mother are in my prayers. I wish there was
something I could say that would
make your pain go away but I know
that is impossible. Now is the
time to be there for yourselves
and your family and remember the
good times as I remember the good times that I had spent with your mother, my cousin. My deepest
sympathies.
Mike
Tom and Tina, please accept my heartfelt sympathies. I just saw the notice in the paper and was shocked. Your mom and I were very close at one time. After my mom died we seemed to loose touch for which I am really sorry. I have many fond memories of the two of us and some of the crazy things we did as kids. We drove Grandma Dumbeck crazy but all in good fun. She was like a big sister to me in a lot of ways. Since I am working and have night blindness I will not be able to get there for you, but know that my prayers, thoughts, and heart are with you. If there is anything I can do please let me know.(618-632-7839) Judy (Gagen) Wylie
Tom and Tina. I was so sorry to hear about your mom's death. She was a very nice lady and I enjoyed sharing many breakfast conversations with her over the past seven years or so. She always had a twinkle in her eye whenever she talked about either of you or when she told me stories about the grandchildren.
She really enjoyed being a mom. I will miss her. You are all in my prayers.
Tina - You have my deepest sympathy during this unexpected time of sadness. Just remember that grandma is there watching over BJ and you too! She was a wonderful lady and I will never forget all the times we had growing up toegether. I will always cherish our times with her. If there is anything you would need, please don't hesitate to contact me. You are in my prayers.
