Thank you to everyone who came to honor Mom yesterday. Truly a remarkable showing of support for her. Remember, she’s waving at you in the wind.

Update from Feb. 11, 2022

Friends and Family, We are hopeful to see all of you next weekend. The service might be fairly brief depending on who wants to speak. Everyone is welcome to say a few words. With that being said, Landon will be giving the eulogy in the beginning followed by a video and a few that we have asked to speak after that. Please let us know if you would be someone that would like to say something. You can email Landon at landonsutterlin@gmail.com to respond.

Also, please feel free to wear more colorful attire in remembrance of Mom as that is what she loved and would want.

Thank You
