  1. The obituary was quite lovely and meant so much to us. Grandma was such a wonderful woman that there is just too much information to even begin to list. She took her great-grandsons, Conor (13) and Cody (11), on many adventures right on her own land within the last four years. She was out in the field playing frisbee, picking berries, making jam, making pasta, baking pies, and watching movies right along with “her boys” without even thinking twice. Conor and Cody often requested to go stay with her for a night or two just to do some of those activities with her again and again. She was and forever will be cherished and loved.

  2. We celebrate the many years you were able to be with your mom and see her personality and service shared. May God’s great grace and mercy help you as you physically let her go in order to see her later.

  3. We love you Mary, you were such a delight as a member of Quilts of Valor. So faithful and a sweet smile each week. Everyone at Quilts of Valor will miss you so. You were dedicated, a good teacher and a joy to be around. You will be missed greatly.

  4. Darla and entire Sublette family, My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to you in the loss of your mother and grandmother. I am sorry I was unable to express my sympathies in person and wanted you to know the Coleman family is thinking of you. Darla…our mothers were made of similar stuff and we were so blessed to have them in our lives for as long as we did! I always think of your parents as I cross the bridge and head up the hill…..take care! Jill
