Dear Mark, Joe, DeeDee, & Sandy,
Your mom was the best! She drove us around when we didn’t have a second car, took us for groceries, to lunch, to the pool, always laughing and having a ball. Your Easter egg hunts were epic and we all have such happy memories of your house, which I can’t believe your Mom designed! We loved her many trips to California and she will be very missed. Our hearts are heavy and our prayers are with you. Love, Janice Bellinghiere
Dear Jeri’s family,
We were sorry to hear of Jeri’s passing but what a life she had. I worked literally side by side with her for so many years at Midlands and loved her dedication and laugh and ability to work thru many situations. She loved Jesse and she loved and shared stories about her kids every day! Jeri looked forward to her vacations to either take a trip or clean her house!! The world and the patients she took care of benefited from her care and concern. My sincere condolences to all of her family whom she delighted in and friends who were able to know her. Nancy.
To Jeri’s family, my condolences. I worked with Jeri at Midlands and we were good friends in the 1980’s and 90’s.. I went on my first cruise with Jeri and Lyssa and 2 other friends. We always had a great time together. She spoke of you kids often and was so proud of all of you. She was a remarkable woman!
To Jeri’s family,
I am sorry to hear of Jeri’s passing. I lived with Jeri here at Walnut Grove where she loved playing Black Jack and Poker. She was always dressed so beautifully and I enjoyed her company. Thank you Jeri for your service to the community.
