Such a sweet and kind lady. She was always working in her flowers. So many people will miss her. May she rest in peace now.
I remember Liz from my old neighborhood. A sweet and wonderful lady. My prayers go out to John and the rest of the family.

John and Sara I am so very sorry for your loss. It is wonderful that you had her in your life for so long. I am sure she is at Peace now and you can rest assured that she is in a better place. Again my deepest condolences. 😪🙏💔
Ann and John,
I will always remember Mrs. Miles as my Sunday School teacher at Asbury. She was among the first to welcome me anytime I returned home to church. I know my parents and sister were overjoyed to greet her in heaven. I am so grateful for our Christian up-bringing and our certainty of seeing her again. Until then, she will be greatly missed. May God and your wonderful memories comfort you.

Ann and John, I have such fond memories of your Mother. Your Mother would help set up curtains in our basement for Sunday school classrooms before Asbury Church was completed. My personal memory is being scolded by her for storing shelled corn in your carport that John and I planned to use for Halloween. Our corn was drawing mice. The Hearne Family is saddened by your loss. She now walks in Glory!
Elizabeth was a dear friend to all the Schlehuser Family. She had a kind heart and always there to help when needed. It is with regret that that distance has keep us from spending these later years together but the family is in our hearts and prayers and she will be missed by many. Don and Claralene Schlehuser
