Guestbook

  1. Mrs. Shoop, I have the fondest memories of growing up as your neighbor, with Mr.Shoop, Simone, Larry, Walter the pigeon, Francious the black pony, Manerva the cat. The honeysuckle growing along your fence smelled so sweet in the summer, your log cabin and lake in the country. You and your family were such a beautiful part of my childhood❤️

  2. I love you Aunt Chris, and will miss you. I always loved going to see Uncle Buddy and Aunt Chris. I will always have wonderful memories of you.

  3. Christine and Raymond were in the Overseas Club with my grandparents, Cletus and Simone Kremer. My grandparents treasured their friendship, and I enjoyed going with my grandmother over to visit with Christine. I can still hear her voice! I am so very sorry for your loss. She was a wonderful and kind woman.
