    To my Arizona Family,
    We will remember the many good times over the years, especially the family song fests around the piano. Am so glad that I had some special moments with her a few weeks ago.
    She was my inspiration, my Sister/Cousin.
    Our thoughts and prayers are with you all.
    Maranel and Randy

    Thinking of you all at this difficult time. I am so thankful we were able to bring mom for a visit in May. She has always referred to Maxine as the closest thing to a sister. It was a fantastic visit with everyone, one we won’t soon forget. You are all in my thoughts and prayers.
