Dearest Dode, What can I say except that I will always treasure the times we spent together, the laughs we shared, the hours we would spend chatting. I have always admired you since the day I met you - which was in 1980. I will always remember the infamous "Home Interior Gift Shows." You always looked out for me and inspired the girls there to book another show. Between you, Debbie, Cathy & Karen we probably could of owned Home Interiors =) I will always treasure all the memories we've made and I wish I could be "half" the person you were not only to me but to everyone that knew you. In reading through your guest book I can feel all the love and passion that everyone has for you - you can go to heaven knowing that your work was done with love & grace. My wonderful friend I will meet you on the other side. Love you with all my heart and thank you for all the fond memories I will forever treasure.
"Heartfelt sympathy to the Smith Family"
With All My Love,

Rest Nanny your fight was an inspiration to us all.
The memories and events you always make us recall.
God saw you getting tired and a cure was not to be.
So He put His arms around you and whispered "come to me."
With tearful eyes we watched you, and saw you pass away.
Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay.
A loving heart stopped beating, hardworking hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.##imported-begin##Karen and Iggy##imported-end##

My Dearest Dode,
May the Lord bless an keep you. May he shed his light upon you and grant you his peace! I truly do not know where to begin? You have been a great part of my life all of your advice, whether i agreed or not has been greatly used. Your love is extremely unconditional. I shall deeply miss you! I shall miss our coffee phone calls and the girls Uno games. You always brought life back to reality. You have guided me, at times I did not like what you had to say, but 99.9% of the time you were right. I thank you for your son Dennis, with out you I wouldn't have him or the 4 great kids of mine, your grandchildren. So go with the angels and fly as high as you can and have peace. Do not forget to check on us and let us know how we're doing! I will always love you and miss you!
Love Always,
Kim.##imported-begin##Kimberly Smith##imported-end##
To Bill and his family I wish you comfort and peace at this time of loss.
To Dode...I want to Thank you for being there throughout my friendship with Bill over these many years. You were always so kind and funny and had one sweet laugh.
Like my own Mom who had 8 kids too....they just don't make them like you gals anymore.
I have never in my life met such strong women like you both were. The love you both had for your children is beyond anything we can imagine.
In life you both only spoke over the phone, but I will think of you both sharing a coffee together under a huge beautiful tree up there sharing stories of the kids you love.
Thank you for trusting me as a friend to Bill and I know you will still be checking in.
Enjoy your Heaven
With Love,
