    Baba, we know you are finally at peace to be able to join Joe again. We will always think of you when God’s hand starts all of the beautiful flowers, grass, and trees blooming in springtime. We’ll continue to snuggle up with your quilts and keep you and Joe’s memories alive for our girls. We cherished the time that we had with you and know one day we will see you both again.

    We are so sorry to hear of Mrs Cloer’s passing. She is now in a place of no more pain. And we know that Helen, Joe Lee and Billy Dale are already missing her.
    We had the privilege of going to school with these three and riding the school bus with them. Helen was in my class for twelve grades.
    They were a sweet and loving family. I know that each of you have lots of wonderful memories to sustain you and know that you will someday be rejoice if with them in heaven. Love to all of you.
