    Jim, Joan, and families,

    Thank you for giving us the pleasure of knowing your mom and the privilege of caring for her.
    As the obiturary says, she was feisty and fun…..but also a “lady” in every sense of the word! Her smile always brightened the day! I am sure you will find comfort in your memories. You are all in our prayers!

    God Bless you for the care and love you, as her children, gave her over the years!

    Tom and I got to know Milly from Eastern Star. She was such a joy to be around and anytime we saw her or when she would come to Galion there was always a smile on her face. She will be fondly remembered for her graciousness and sweet personality. It was a joy to have known her. We extend to all of you our sympathy in your loss. Tom and Barb Livingston

    Condolence:

    We were acquainted with John and Millie through Eastern Star. AS a couple, they were both a lot of fun.

    I can remember when Millie was Grand Representative of Arizona and she traveled and had a lot of fun. She was always an up beat lady.
    John later was Bob’s boss at the mall.

    You have our sympathy but know that you have great memories of her as we do.

    To the Barnhart family,

    I am sending my condolences at the passing of Mrs. Barnhart. Even though I did not know her well-your family lived across the street from us in Shiloh. I am always sad to hear of the passing of friends and neighbors from my childhood days in Shiloh.

    God Bless and comfort your family…
