I am very sad to hear about Aunt Ardis. She was a beautiful and wonderful women. I am blessed to know Aunt R for my whole life. She loved her family, children and friends. I love her laugh and sharing time as much as time allowed. I am glad we could visit the last few years at Thanksgiving. She always reminded me of her other sisters especially my Grandmother Gladys I. LePla (Ramage) - caring and a sweet person to hug and chat with when we visited. I tried to send a letters and token gifts as much as possible. We are currently in TN and will miss her memorial service. We sent a basket of fruit and will donate in her memory to the organization of choice soon. God Bless Aunt Ardis, Uncle Marsh, family and friends. We will miss our visits together even though it was sparse. Prayers, love and hugs sent to heaven to our newest Guardian Angel!
