Dear Barb & Greg, Life is a collection of memories and from that collection we paint a varitable tapestry of our being here on earth. I am so pleased that mine has your family in it as your home was a place, where as a young child I played often with my dear friend Barbara and was graciously watched over by her loving mother Mrs.Sipple. Please except my heartfelt condolences at the loss of this sweet god fearing woman and

know in your hearts that she is in a far better place, surrounded by our lord.

Dear Gregg,Carol,Barb & Family: Growing up on Hardwick Street and across from the Sipple family was wonderful. Mrs. Sipple was like our right hand when our Mother was ill and dying. Frequent visits, casseroles, home canned delights came across the street by the bushels. Her heart broke right along with ours and she was a blessing not just then, but all through the many years. Our hearts are broken again with yours and we will miss her. love Ray & Gloria

My consolences to you and the family on the passing of your mother. Take comfort that she lived a long and successful life and was independent for so long. Time does not remove our sense of loss, but it does make it easier to deal with it. God's speed.

Barb and Gregg,

Was sorry to hear about Aunt Helen's passing. Mom and I both have many fond memories of her. She lived a good life and now is resting with your Dad and Bud.

Love,

Aunt Aggie and Carol

Greg and Carol,

So sorry to hear of your mom's passing.Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this difficult time. She always had the best smile and the kindest words for everyone.Hang there in it will get easier!

Mrs Sipple was always so friendly and tried to make you feel at home. It seemed like she would always take a little time to sit and chat with you. I will always have foned memories of her.

Remembering Mr. & Mrs. Sipple is probably the best of my memories. There are numerous memories of Daytona, Laconia, "apple picking with Ronnie", hanging on the poarch, dueling vacinations with Ray, and of course the famous school bus on the lawn of BHS, etc.

They are so numerous.....my home away from home.

I saw Mrs. Sipple over Easter vacation and she was wonderful. I am so glad I visited. I know she is with Ray, Raymond and my Mom now.

Forever in my heart......

Sharon

Mother Sipple was my other Mother as I was growing up being friends with her daughter Barbara. She always made me feel like a part of her family. I have such fond memories of her love and sharing nature towards me and everyone around her. She will be truely missed.

Mrs. Sipple was a beautiful lady, I remember her as being happy all the time when she came to Roanoke to visit her beautiful grandchildren. Our prayers are with the family. Mrs Sipple just went on a short vacation, we will see her again.

May all of our lives be as long and fulfilling.

Barb and Greg,

You are in our thoughts and prayers.Valerie,Nolan,Xander and I are all so grateful we spent 10 days in Jersey with you all this summer. What a wonderful way to spend her 96th birthday. We have such awesome memories and pictures.

Love you both,Flo and Bill
