Funeral services for Imogene will be held at 10am, Wednesday October 24, 2012 at East Lawn Funeral Home, Bloomington. Visitation will be one hour prior at the funeral home. Interment will be at East Lawn Memorial Gardens, Bloomington.
She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother to her own family and even to others; she was an encourager. Her kitchen was open to everyone, even a stranger. She loved to cook, sew, quilt, and garden; she passed her love of flowers on to her grandchildren. She was an angel here on earth, and is now in Heaven with her family. She taught us all what family was about. The Loy family would like to thank family and friends for all their prayers, phone calls, and support.
Rest in peace, Sally Imogene Loy. Our Father has called you home; we love you!
In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to the American Heart Association or the Wounded Warrior Project.
