What a great lady and friend. She helped make our time in Three Fountains truly enjoyable. She is one we hope to see in the hereafter. She and Charlie can now enjoy each others company.
I will miss Elizabeth’s sweet friendship, we were always so happy to see each other. She was a delight to visit with. She was a year older and we loved to talk about when we would greet our eternal companions in the next world. She was a dear friend and would always bring a spark of happiness in my life. I will miss her!
Dear Clouse family, so sorry for the loss of a sweet mom. She is so sad to leave you, but so happy to be with her eternal companion. Our thought and prayers are with you at this time.
I’m so sorry for your great loss ???
