Dear Garland and family, We were sorry to hear about your mother. She was a great person (so motivated) and interesting . Janet saw her a lot when living on 43. Marilyn thought of her often. She was a role model for us in her life and of the Wise family. Daddy (Walter Wise) always complimented her. Everyone admired her work ethic and focus on keeping her home and property so well manicured. We knew that she perserved in all. Papaw Wise always enjoyed her. We remember going to her folks to visit with Mamaw and Papaw.Was nice to see ones in Indiana not only E town.lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllRegrets, Janet and Marilyn.

Garland and Family
You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your mom. She was a great lady and such a hard worker. I will always remember going to the big brick house and getting eggs, and seeing her out mowing the yard.
When dad passed she came to the grave side service and told me how she thought it was so nice that the grandsons all wore bib overhauls.
You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

An old friend

We were saddened to read of your mother&s death in today&s paper. How wonderful you were able to have her with you for so many years.

Charlie&s family had not maintained close ties with the rest of the Frey&s after Charlie&s father, Elmer, died in the early fifties, however, we do recall a family reunion that was held about thirty years ago on a farm near Crawfordsville when the Frey family reunited and your family was a part of that gathering.

Please accept our heartfelt sympathy.
