Rowena Lund was a devoted wife, a proud mom, a cherished grandma, and a beloved great-grandma. Her family was her greatest joy, and she poured her heart into each generation, creating a legacy of warmth, kindness, and steady love.
She had a servant’s heart. Through her deep connections at church, she faithfully served others, offering encouragement, friendship, and a helping hand wherever it was needed.
Her life was a beautiful example of loving well, serving faithfully, and finding joy in everyday moments.
Thank you Lund Family for the honor of being with your family.

Mike Clemens was a man who truly set the standard for what it means to be a dad.
Mike was the kind of father everyone wished they had. He was kind and understanding, always present and involved. He guided with patience, listened without judgment, and when firmness was needed, it always came from a place of deep love and unwavering commitment. His children knew they were supported, protected, and believed in.
And somehow, he was an even better grandpa. His grandchildren brought out his playful spirit and tender heart. Time spent with them was never rushed — it was treasured.
Mike lived with intention. He strove to be a man others could look up to — and in doing so, he became not only a role model, but a trusted friend to so many. His legacy will live on in the lessons he taught, the love he gave, and the countless lives he influenced simply by being himself.
Thank you Clemens Family for the honor of being with your family.

Carole Mathena was deeply devoted to her Catholic faith. Her love for the Lord guided her days and gave her a steady, faithful strength that touched everyone who knew her. She lived her beliefs through kindness, prayer, and a quiet example of grace.
She was a devoted mom, a proud grandma, and a loving sister. Family meant everything to Carole. She cherished time spent together, celebrated life’s milestones with joy, and offered constant encouragement and support. The love she poured into her children and grandchildren will continue to echo through their lives, and the bond she shared with her siblings was one of deep connection and care.
As her family gathered to say goodbye, they did so with hearts full of gratitude for the woman she was and the legacy of faith and love she leaves behind.
Thank you Mathena Family for the honor of being with your family.

Last night was filled with laughter, friendly competition, and a whole lot of “BINGO!”
We were so happy to host our annual Bingo Night — an evening simply meant for gathering together, enjoying a fun night out, and spending time in community. It’s always special to be with each other not just in times of loss, but in moments of connection and joy.
This year, we were especially honored to partner with Invisible Wounds. Guests had the opportunity to learn more about the incredible work and meaningful services they provide right here in our community. Supporting organizations that care for the emotional and unseen struggles so many face is something we deeply believe in.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, brought a friend, and helped make the evening such a success. Community matters — and nights like this remind us just how blessed we are to be part of such a caring one. 💛

Myrna Craig loved Jesus with her whole heart. Her faith wasn’t just something she spoke about; it was something she lived. It gave her strength, guided her kindness, and filled her days with hope. In recent years, she spoke often about Heaven — not with fear, but with anticipation — looking forward to the joyful reunion with her beloved husband, Elwood.
For Myrna, Heaven was home. Her family takes comfort in knowing she has been welcomed there — reunited with Elwood, embraced in peace, and surrounded by everlasting love.
Though her family and friends will deeply miss her presence, they hold tightly to the promise she believed in so faithfully. Her life was a testimony to love, devotion, and unwavering trust in God’s plan.
Thank you Craig Family for the honor of being with your family.

Family and friends recently gathered to celebrate the life of Shirley Snell — a devoted mom, grandma, and great-grandma whose love for her family was the heart of her world.
Shirley had a special joy for “angel hunting.” She loved visiting local flea markets and little shops, always on the lookout for the next angel to add to her treasured collection. Each one she found seemed to carry a story, a bit of beauty, and a reminder of faith and comfort. Those angels will now hold even deeper meaning for the family who knew how much happiness they brought her.
Thank you Snell Family for the honor of being with your family.
