Corrine and fellow staff at the Stettler Funeral Home who went above and beyond in helping with the funeral arrangements, Albern Bergstrom and Father Joseph Jacobson for your words of comfort, heartfelt stories, and prayers. Karen Norman for your beautiful hymns during the service. To Teresa’s Catering for the wonderful lunch. And for the flowers, cards, phone calls, and food brought to our homes, and your attendance at her funeral service. Also, for the generous donations made in Mom’s memory.

We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone for their expressions of sympathy through flowers, cards, phone calls, hugs, food dropped off at the houses, attendance at the service, and memorial donations.
