With your passing and departing we have lost the best mom, wife, daughter, sister, grandmother and great grandmother that God has put on this earth. We are comforted in the knowledge that someday we will be together again.

Mom was born in Courtland Township, Rockford, Michigan. She graduated from Morley High School in 1949. On August 27, 1949, mom married our father, Roger Earl Vining in Morley, Michigan. She raised three sons, Mike, Frank and Randy. Mom died at home in Coral, Michigan and was buried on May 31, 2003 at Higbee Cemetery, Morley, Michigan. Mom left behind seven grandchildren and many great grandchildren.

Mom's favorite time of the year were the holidays, where she would decorate the house and invite all our family to the party. She liked to create games to entertain the grandchildren.

I miss going to antique stores and yard sales with her and I miss sharing our hobbies of post card collecting.

We are glad that mom is at peace and is no longer suffering. We need to find a cure for Parkinson's Disease.
