A private graveside service will be held at Park Hill Cemetery, in Vancouver, WA. Her cremated remains will be buried on top of her mother's grave, which were her last wishes. Following her graveside service, there will be a celebration of life, held at daughter Lindsay's home. Date to be determined.
"If roses grow in Heaven,
Lord please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my mother's arms,
And tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love her and miss her,
And when she turns to smile
Place a kiss upon her cheek,
And hold her for awhile."
