In Loving Memory
DANI M. KOOYMAN (MORMAN)
December 14, 1958 - May 5, 2008
We thought of you with love today.
But that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday.
And days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories.
And your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake.
With which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping.
We have you in our heart.
It has been 5 years today since we lost you and it still seems like yesterday. We love and miss you.
Love your daughters,
Randi and Ricci

CHARLENE FAYE STEPHENS
Charlene Faye Stephens made her journey around the world, and ended her journey in life in Birmingham, Alabama on January 20, 2008. You are in our hearts every minute of every hour of everyday. Charlene, your Mom and Dad miss you so much. We remember the joyful day God's Angels brought you to us, (December 9, 1972), and the hurt the day they took you home.
Charlene, keep watching; we will join you one day, and we will walk around Heaven all day long with you.
Golden Memories
They say memories are golden, well, maybe that is true. I never wanted memories, I only wanted you. A million times I cried. If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life I loved you dearly; in death I love you still. In my heart you hold a place no one else could fill. If tears could build a stairway and heartache make a lane, I'd walk the path to Heaven and bring you back again. Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same. But as God calls us back one by one, the chain will link again. Unknown
Memorial Services will be held for Maxine and Charlene on May 11, 2013 between 11am and 3:30 pm at the Family of Faith Community Church, 708 W. Nora Ave.

wolfe, sandra kay (smith) (age 68) "sandy"
[br][br]With broken hearts & joy we said goodbye to Sandy on May 4, 2013. After suffering almost 3 years with ALS, she was peacefully set free into Jesus' arms. We are sad, but glad for her to be whole, healed & happy again, dancing with her daddy in Heaven!
Sandy was born in Shore Acres, WA (near Everett) on Feb. 4, 1945 to Hazel Ella (Holland) & Wesley Sylvester Smith of Index, WA. She was preceded in death by her parents & brothers Wesley (Ron) & Steven Smith. She is survived by her husband of almost 50 years, Michael; daughters Laurie (Jim) Johnson and Michelle (Steve) Klock; son Chris (Michelle) Wolfe; grandchildren Sarah, Kristen, Maddy, Daniel, Kathryn, Nicole, Amy, Aidan, Dakota & William; great-grandbaby on the way, Bailey Grace; sisters Nancy (Jim) Locke, Janice Sue Gowen, Judy (Ron) Schirman, Merry Ann Barnhouse; brother David (Pam) Smith; sister-in-law Susan (Paul) Hayduk, brothers-in-law Jim (Tim) Wolfe & Ed (Cheryl) Wolfe; numerous nieces & nephews; and her very devoted "cat kids" Rusty & Allie.
Sandy grew up & attended school in Index, WA, graduated from Sultan Union H.S. in 1963 & met Mike on a blind date in August that year. A handsome sailor, he swept her off her feet. They eloped to the "Hitching Post" in Coeur d'Alene, ID 6 weeks later. Laurie, Michelle & Chris came along while Sandy was a Navy wife. After their service they moved to Deer Park (40 years ago) to work with Mike's parents at Wolfe Hardware, eventually purchasing the business. Sandy & Mike retired in 1994 to enjoy many years of WSU Cougar football games, camping & traveling. Sandy passionately loved her grandkids, family, friends, cats, hummingbirds, yard sales & thrift stores, TOPS, Bunco, chocolate, taking care of everyone & being in charge! She served the community in many ways including H.S. Booster Club, blood donor, Mary Steele Dog Walk, Settlers Day Honored Couple, wife of the mayor for 8 years, Meals on Wheels, Greenhouse volunteer, Toys 4 Tots, Coats 4 Kids & more. Sandy had a big heart that filled her whole body & burst out to touch everyone she knew. Her generosity blessed so many as she lived her life. She is greatly loved and will be terribly missed, until we're together again!
Many thanks to family, friends, classmates & all those who have prayed, loved & supported Sandy & family. Special thanks to those who visited Sandy throughout the illness, her nurses & aides from Providence VNA & Hospice of Spokane, the ALS Assn. for invaluable equipment, Dr. Basil M. Griffin, M.D. & Linda Clarkson for going above & beyond, and Kim Predisik of Micah 6:8 Ministries for special music & humor that got Mike singing & Sandy smiling! We're blessed by all of you!
Memorial service: Sat., May 25, Deer Park Open Door Congregational Church (205 N. Main St.) at 2:00 pm, Rev. Daniel Berg officiating. Reception: Deer Park Civic Center (315 E. Crawford). In honor of Sandy being the ultimate WSU Cougar fan, crimson & gray attire is suggested - "GO COUGS!"

churchill, hazel m
[br][br]On this Mother's Day we wish to honor Hazel Churchill, 90, of Spokane Valley, WA who passed away peacefully of natural causes on Friday evening, April 19, 2013. She was born on a farm near Halstead, Kansas to William Krebs and Mary Unruh and was loved throughout her life by her family and friends. She traveled with her family to the Spokane area where she was one of 13 children raised in a small 3-room house in the Spokane Valley. In 1940 she met the love of her life, Robert Churchill, and married him on January 23, 1943. After Robert Churchill returned home from the service they settled and began to raise a family in Spokane. Here he and Hazel had a daughter and two sons, Sharon, William and Lynn. She was a devoted mother and was active in helping others. She and the family moved and settled in Kirkland, WA in 1963 and lived there until retirement. During that time, Hazel was one of the leading Avon sales representatives in that region. After retirement in 1991, Robert and Hazel moved from Seattle back to the Spokane area and settled in the Spokane Valley where they could be close to family and friends. Their home has always been the gathering place for the family's holidays and celebrations. Hazel was always a person who cared for and respected others. She will be missed greatly by her family and friends. Robert preceded her in death in October 2009 after 66 years of marriage. She is survived by her daughter, Sharon Preston of Colville, WA; her two sons, William Churchill, of Kirkland, WA and Lynn Churchill, of Missoula, MT as well as four grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. In lieu of flowers, the family would like to encourage donations to the Special Olympics, organizations serving Disabled Veterans, Make-A-Wish or a charity of your choice. The family will announce a time and place for a celebration of Hazel's life in the very near future.
