I will miss my Auntie very much.
I am so sorry for your great loss but you were right Nikki when you said she is with your dad now. I will be praying for your family and you will all be in my thoughts.
Val will be greatly missed but at least she can finally be with Tom again.
Our family is so sad to hear of our dear cousin Val’s passing. I have fond memories of visits with her when I was little and still living in the UP. Deepest sympathy to her children, grandchildren, family and friends from Vern & Angie Hixon’s eldest daughter
So sorry to hear about Val. I’m trying to catch up with cousins and once again I’m too late.We’ll keep family in prayers.

Sending my condolences to my cousins Nichole, Todd, and Troy.
May Auntie Val rest in peace and may you all find peace and happiness knowing she is with Uncle Tom finally.
I love you!

To long lost family. I am the second daughter of Jim and Beverly Lynd. My dad is a brother of Val.
So sorry to hear about Valie’s death. When we were children in the Soo, we were very close. Not just cousins but best friends. When she moved to Milwaukee I even got to go on the train to visit her. I think we were about ten years old. She and your Dad visited me and my first husband when we lived in Trenton, MI I tried to get in touch with her again a few yeas ago because I’m doing our family tree. I left a message but she didn’t return my call. Wish I had tried again. I cannot believe she is gone. She will be in my heart forever. I am Jeri Miller daughter of Lucille Hixon.
