Your mother is always with you. She’s the whisper of the leaves as you walk down the street. She’s the smell of certain foods you remember, flowers you picked and the perfume that she wore. She’s the cool hand on your brow when you’re not feeling well. She’s your breath in the air on a cold winters day, the sound of the rain that lulls you to sleep. Your mother lives inside your laughter, she is crystallized in every tear drop. She is your first love, your first friend and nothing on earth can separate you.

Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Friday, June 24, 2022, at First United Church of Christ (509 S. Webster Ave.), Green Bay. Officiating at the service will be the Rev. Adam Westrich, with entombment to take place at Nicolet Memorial Gardens at a later time.
