This week’s WEB CLASSIFIEDS are JAM-PACKED!
CARD OF THANKS
The family of George Borgel would like to thank everyone for the support after the passing of our father, grandfather, and father-in-law. Your visits, flowers, food, and sympathy cards were most comforting. A huge thank you to Fee & Sons Funeral Home for your guidance and support, as well as Bethany Meadows Staff who so graciously cared for George during his last few months. Your dedication is to be admired. In addition, thank you to all who helped us during the service and lunch on April 4, we appreciated you participating in saying goodbye to George.

Thank you to the young mom and the 20-month-old tired little boy.

MEMORIAL
In Memory of
Fred LeGear
March 22, 1934 –
April 21, 2016
We sat beside your bedside,
Our hearts were crushed and sore;
We did our best to the end,
‘Til we could do no more.
In tears, we watched you sinking,
We watched you fade away;
And though our hearts were breaking,
We knew you could not stay.
You left behind some aching hearts,
That loved you most sincere;
We never shall and never will,
Forget you, H
usband, Father, Grandpa Dear.
Love,
Reta,
Nancy and Family,
Doug and Family,
Scott and Family
———————
Kenneth James Skoberg
August 1945 –
April 2013
Today recalls the memory
Of a loved one gone to rest,
And those who think of him today
Are those who loved him best.
The flowers we lay upon his grave
May wither and decay,
But the love for him who lies beneath
Will never fade away.
Always in our Hearts,
Birthe,
Tammy, Erik, Shawn, Daniel,
and Families.
