Ida Funk

is honored with a Brick from Brynn Blankinship, Janet Blankinship, Kara Chaney, Ryan Chaney, and Gwen Moyer.

Mom, this is a quote I found written by Washington Irving that reflects your love for us:

ALL THE WORLD
There is an enduring tenderness in the love of a mother and grandmother that transcends all other affections of the heart! It is neither chilled by selfishness, nor daunted by danger, nor weakened by worthlessness, nor stifled by ingratitude. She will sacrifice every comfort to their convenience; she will surrender every pleasure to their employment; she will glory in their name, and exult in their prosperity and if misfortune overtake them they will be the dearer to her from misfortune; and if disgrace settle upon their name she will still love and cherish them in spite of their disgrace; and if all the world beside cast them off, she will be all the World to them.

Thank you God, for our Mom and Grandmother.

Submitted with love by Gwen Moyer, Janet Blankinship, Kara Chaney, Ryan Chaney and Brynn Blankinship.
