Mom,  you have been apart of my life for over 25 years.  I love you and will keep you with me all the time.  Everyone who ever knew you, admired you and was taken, by the fact you did look younger than your years.  You contributed so much to my life.  You amazed me with all you could do as a single lady, yard work, your vegetable garden was always better than mine.  Seeing you paint the ceilling on your coach was unbelievable, I never attempted to paint a ceiling til I saw how you did it so well.  I learned many more acheivements too many to list but thank you so much.
You should be so proud the way you worked at being healthy, your committment to weight watchers, the laps walking around the moble home park the excercise classes at the community center, etc.....
You amazed everyone on how you recovered from each and every fall.  You are a resilent lady.  I will miss our private talks, me sharing with you my best bargains, and watching (All My Children).  
I am comforted to know that you will not suffer any more falls, boken bones or loniless. I know you are happy and enjoy your family in heaven, because I know how much you missed them through the years.
I am very proud to have you in my life and my childrens life, and want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the best gift of all and that is Micheal.  
God Bless you, you will be missed and always loved, love Carolyn

Mike, Carolyn and family-my thouguhts and prayers are with you.  She was an amazing lady, full of life and energy. She lived a life filled with family and friends. I know she is smiling down.

Mike, may knowing you're in the hearts and thoughts of others help you and yours through this time of sorrow.   Larry & Jean Talbot

Grandma --

I will never forget our visits -- walking through the park and being introduced to all of your friends and neighbors, looking at family photos and all of the breakfast that you would bring out when I stayed with you while in San Jose for work. 

I am grateful for the time and energy that you spent coming to visit all of us in Michigan as well (sorry it was always cold :-).  I am thankful that my children had the opportunity to know you and share your company as well.

Thank you so very much for all the love and kindness that you brought to our lives. We will all miss you dearly.

Love Tom, Barbie, Sam, Annie & Joe

Nadean, you were a wonderul, grand, and a elegant lady.  You always had a smile on your face.  You give my sister a wonderful man to live her days with.  I always looked forward in seeing you when I visited Mike and Carolyn in San Jose and now in Newman.  I will miss all of our conversations that we have had together.  I am so grateful for knowing an elegant lady like you.  
Rest in peace,
Jean Hunter

Auntie,  I have so many great memories of you and Uncle Buss...Uncle playing the piano with Bonnie and you watching with pride and of course smiling ear to ear...even when Bonnie and I would go four leaf clover hunting and I would never find any...Bonnie always found them and covered up the back of her bedroom door with them...I would be so upset and you were there to console me...your smile would always make me feel better...You will be missed by many..Love to Bonnie, Tom, Mike,Caroline and all the family...Jackie and Lee

Dear Grandma, I've got so many memories and pictures to last forever.  Especially when you came to Michigan for Tulip Time in '08.  We watched the parades, and walked 8th Street downtown Holland.  We were went to Dutch Village and let all the tourists take pictures of Jake dressed up as a Dutch Boy.  We visited Veldheers and saw rows of rows of Tulips.  We walked down to Lake Michigan at Tunnel Park, and climbed up the sand dune with quite a few laughs!  I love it that you went to a couple of Cam's baseball games, and got to see him play.  Then..Your 90th Birthday Party.  It was amazing!  You have so many caring, loving friends who were there to celebrate with you.  I never ever liked saying goodbye.  And it always brought lots of tears when I knew you were getting ready to board that plane back to Cali., or me back to MI.  I'm so thankful for that last hug and kiss, Grandma.  You are the most amazing, beautiful, caring, loving Grandma.  And I miss you terribly, Grandma Casey!  xoxo  Love, Trisha, Dave, Bren, Cam, and Jake

My Dearest Mother In-Law, We have been family members for almost 50 years. Daughters are often like their mothers and I guess that is how I how I entered your family.  Two great ladies, you and Bonnie, and I have always loved you both. We have lots of good memories going places and your favorite eating out. One of my most recent and best memory was during this past summer caring for you in CA. Your memory was getting foggy and you really didn't remember who I was and you had to be taught my name. I wouldn't give up until you got it right. When it was all said and done, Bonnie and I were quoted as "the nice people that came by to stay a while." That is just fine with me as I loved being with you. I am sure I know where your soul is today and I will look forward to seeing you again. We will have a great time with the Lord. Your only son in law, Tom.

Mom, I'm so glad that I got to spend time with you in August.  We had a good time together on our daily walks. You in your wheelchair and me doing the walking.  You have been the best Mom and Grandma to us and our children. We will miss you even though we lived far apart.  I know you are resting in God's arms and in a peaceful place. I love you very much. Bonnie

"Mike, Carolyn, Bonnie, Tom and familes, our thoughts are with you all at this difficult time. Aunt Nay was such a bright shinning light in our family and we miss her. I will cherish the memories of our trips we had to Grand Rapids to visit. I always loved coming up there and my heart broke when you moved to California. We will always have a special place in our hearts for your mom. Love you all, Val and Jim"

I miss you, grandma.  Though I have so many wonderful memories that make me smile I just want you back to laugh and smile with me. We had so much fun together, especially when mom and I came together over the summers.  I will never stop missing you.
Love,
Tracey

Michael my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  Your mom was a very nice lady.  
  
Your Friend,
Pat Strickland

 Aunt Nay. What a wonderful lady!  Wish I could have spent more time with her.  I will cherish the memory I have when she rode back to Michigan with my mom dad janet and I.  She loved it when I did impressions to entertain her, or maybe she kept asking me to do them so my sister Janet and I wouln't fight!  Very smart woman. Thinking of her always makes me smile!  Brenda Evans Case

I miss you Mom.  I can't believe that you are gone.  I never expected anything like this to happen to you.

I think back on the good times that we had through out the years and am glad that we had as much time together as we did.  

Thanks for being a great Mom to me.  Rest in peace.  I love you.
Michael
