Thank you mom for being there for my graduation. It meant so much to me. Because even though you was battling your illnesses you took the time to come and see me graduate as you had promised. Mom you are the one I am thankful for, for the guidance and patience and encouragement and your faith that I could complete what I started. For believing in me mother when I wasn't sure I believed in myself.I will miss seeing your beautiful face and the golden aura around you. Your beautiful voice when you sang with the choir on conference day. Thank you for being my mother when I lost my other mother. I will miss your sweet soul. Tell grandma and grandpa Ridgly hello. And give a swift kick to great grandpa Thomas from all of us . Rest in peace sweet mother of mine.

I remember the time we went to Wendover and had a blast. It was great spending time with Anna(mom) and dad and the others. Great Times!

Anna was my stepmother but she never liked us using the word step. She always introduced me to people as my daughter by proxy. I loved that about her. She always encourged me to be strong. She was very inspirational and taught me a lot to trust in God that what we go through in life there is a lesson to be learned. To make me stronger. She was a great listener when I was going through two abusive marriages she would say how much more are you going to take? She helped me to be strong. This picture was when we got our hair permed together and we was laughing about it and dad (Jim) took the picture. I love you Mom and will miss our talks and your love.

My favorite memory of my Great Aunt Anna is when I would spend the summer with my Grandma Beth and she would take my brothers and I to visit her and Uncle Jim in Thistle or their home in Benjamin. She would never let you leave her house hungry too. I would love when Aunt Anna and my Grandma would tell me stories about when they where little girls and their many adventures.

I have so many memories of my beautiful friend! I was privileged to work with Anna
for 20 of the funnest years at Westridge! She was a hard worker, loved the children and went along with everything her boss (me) would come up with! She would do everything in life with a smile!
Anna and I have been through many ups and downs in our life together! Cried on each others shoulders, shared with each other things that you would normally tell your sister!
That is what we were to each other! We were family!
It was so hard seeing my dear friend struggle with her illness! But, through it all she
would still laugh at my jokes, tell me that things were going to be alright if she saw
me tear up! She was comforting me!
I know when she lost her Mum as she calls her, she missed her everyday! We
would speak of her often and share stories of hardships her dear Mum went through!
I am sure there was such a beautiful reunion for Anna! She is a treasured woman!
Loved by all, will be missed by all. I feel honored to call her friend! I love you, Anna!
Until we meet again!

This week I lost my best friend. People said we never cut the apron strings and I am feeling it now. My mother saved my life, my marriage and was always there when I needed her. She never judged me and always listened. She was the best grandma in the world. I loved the time we had together in Gunnison, our long talks, giggles and late night ice cream, and will always cherish the time we had. She will truly be missed. I love you mom
