Ardella was a dear friend for many years. I will always remember the great times at the river, her apartment and various outings. She had a great sense of humor, always with a quick come back. I will miss our visits on the telephone and pictures of the kids. Love you always

We are completely saddened with the news of Ardella, she will be missed. We played many games of 500, and enjoyed summer outings at the cabin. She spoke so lovingly of her family. Our hearts go out to all of you.

WITH DEEP GRATIITUDE, RESPECT, AND LOVE FOR ARDELLA AND HER ACCEPTANCE OF ME, THE UNCEASING KINDNESS, AND HER GENEROSITY TO ME, I EXPRESS MY SYMAPTHY TO HER FAMILY-DAN&KELLI, AND THEIR CHILDREN, AND TO DAVID.

WHEN ARDELLA AND DAVID ACCEPTED ME AS THEIR TENANT, ARDELLA ENCOURAGED ME TO DO SOME GARDENING. AFTER A FEW YEARS HAD GONE BY, AREDELLA AND I WERE DISCUSSING ALL THE FLOWERS AND PLANTS, AND SHE APPEARED TO BE DISAPPPOINTED WITH ME. I INQUIRED OF HER-DIDN’T YOU WANT ME TO PLANT FLOWERS AND PLANTS? SHE SAID TO ME-NOT IN ANGER-BUT SO MANY, AND KIND OF HALF LAUGHED!

ONE OF MY NEIGHBORS, MARJORIE ROSS IS A LADY NEAR ARDELLA’S AGE, AND NOT ALWAYS IN THE BEST OF HEALTH. ARDELLA ALWAYS ASKED ME-ARE YOU LOOKING OUT FOR MARGE?

ARDELLA WAS ALWAYS CONCERNED FOR US. SHE WAS IRREPLACEABLE, AN EXAMPLE TO EACH OF US, AND ONE OF A KIND.
