    Jim and Marlene; it was sad to hear of Bertha's passing, our love and prayers are with you. Aunt Bertha and uncle Gernell were always so good to us and our Dad and Mom. I will never forget the times I would spend a week at a time with your family when we were just little fellows. The sound of your Dad's 37 Chevrolet, the smell of rubber on his work clothes when he worked at the tire shop on highway 64 near where you all lived. But most of all I remember the hugs from your Mom and all the love she would give us. She was such a sweet and loving lady. I know you will miss her but I also know uncle Gernell was so happy to see her and be reunited with her forever. I'm sorry we will not be able to attend the funeral but you will be in our thoughts and prayers. Love you All Randell, Delores,and family

She was alway's so kind to all of us kid's.I'm sure she is rejoicing with everyone who has already gone home !! You are in our thought's and prayers...We love you..Karen and Sonny.
