Shelly, Brandy,Barbara and Pops,
I am so sorry for the loss of sweet MiImi. She was always so kind to me. I still remember when she taught me to water ski,(arms straight legs bent). How patient she was with me.
I pray that God will calm your sorrow.

Pop and family, Karen and I are terribly sorry about Mimi passing. We know she is with The Lord and is looking down on all of you. Josh told us the about the wonderful care that everyone has given over the last few years. She was very lucky to have had all of you, as much as you were to have had her. All of you are in our prayers, Kurt and Karen
We are so sorry for your loss and pain. We are praying for your family. May you feel the love and comfort of our Savior, Jesus.
That was a beautiful tribute to a beautiful lady. Love you all!
Our thoughts and prayers go to the Hobbs family. While we never had the pleasure of meeting Mimi, I definitely see the beauty and legacy that she has left behind. May your heart be healed through the precious memories you have shared with her.
With prayers and blessings,
Kelly
