Our deepest sympathies on the loss of Velma. Soon your tears will be replaced by smiles and laughter when you think of her and remember the fun times you shared.

From working days at KLCVI to years of playing slo pitch together, Velma was a good friend and someone I knew would see the same humorous side of things as I did.
Say not in grief "she is no more" but in thankfulness "that she was". I know I am thankful for the friendship, smiles and laughter she gave me.
Please accept my heartfelt sympathies for your loss.

We were very saddened to hear of your mom's passing. She and her family were the first to welcome Bill and myself to King Kirkland and then later our newborn sons. She always had words of encouragement and advice when we talked but she made sure to also tell me to take the advice with a grain of salt and then the smile would appear on her face. She will be missed. Rest in peace Velma.
