Denny & Barbara Holden - Friend

Grandma, What part of our life have you not touched??? Watching you bake bread and you pinching off some fresh dough for the little ones to eat-you taught us SHARING. Taking out our splinters and pulling our baby teeth-taught us CARING. Working in the garden and picking huckleberries- taught us that HARD WORK does have its rewards. Hearing your nightly prayers asking for the protection of your family-taught us that GOD is always near! The best lesson of all that you taught us was that LAUGHTER is the best medicine. Thanks for teaching us these valuable life's lessons. Your loving Granddaughter-Patty

Patty Fields - Granddaughter
