Our hearts are saddened at the prolonged illness and passing of Candy, and so very happy to have known her. She always had a cheerful hello and happy countenance, and we know how very much she loved those grandchildren. We are praying for Ron and the family at this difficult time. Let us know if there will be a memorial service to celebrate her life.
Ron and family – so sorry to lose such a wonderful person as Candy. She was beautiful inside and out. She will be deeply missed. Will keep you and your family in our prayers.

So sad! I never knew she was Ill. She was our daughter’s Sunday School teacher at Woodlake Lutheran Church. Such a vibrant and loving person. She will be missed by many.
So very sad to hear of Candy’s passing. Candy would light up the room when she came through the door and was beautiful inside and out. My heartfelt sympathies to Ron and the entire family.
Ron, Candy was such a beautiful woman with a heart of gold. My heart goes out to you for your loss.
