| Dear Cliff, Kirk and Marcia and families, Stoney was a dear person with whom I always connected. I first got to know her as our lab teck while working in her office at Parkway Drive. She loved her two boys, and her face always lit up when speaking of you both. She will always be remembered as an independent thinking woman with lots of courage,always a smile and hug. I was out of town and am sad to learn her of her passing. My Sympathy,and prayers for you all. Joyce Reedy |
Stoney was a wonderful, thoughtful person. I remember going to the dental clinic and always being greeted with a smile. That is the only Dental Clinic that I really liked going to, and I have been to several. Sheila Hendrickson McTaggart |
