Mary and Vicky,
Our deepest sympathy to the two of you and your families. We have some very fond memories our families, picnics, boating, beach time and even a bit of community work time at the resort. Never without a great meal to finish the day. Your home was nick named the pit stop as the door was always open to stop in. May God bless you with all the memories to bring you peace and comfort in the days ahead.
Love,
Mark and Bonnie

Our deepest sympathy to the Lowing family. My fondest memories of Lucille was her friendly smile, hospitality, and kind heart. Not to mention her awesome venison roast that she prepared for our fishing trips up north, and we will never forget the square dancing. Her heart and home was always open to the Prill family. Sorry for your loss and we are keeping you guys in our thoughts and prayers. Love Uncle Matt, Aunt Gina, and Grandpa Prill.
