I will always cherish the memories of our growing up years when we spent a lot of time on the ranch and playing outdoors. The fishing, hunting and just playing in the trees as well as riding the horses always made for fun with our cousins. She will be missed by all of us a lot but is in a good place now with the husband she loved so much and the boys she lost so yound. Love you guys. Pat and Bill.John & Donna Houston
