To The Bacus Family;

We send our condolences on the loss of “Turk”, as we all knew him. The Bacus family has been in our neighbor-
hood for many years (as have we). We would see him occasionaly at the Hometown Cafe on Sunday mornings having breakfast, and he never failed to say “Hi There”. We will miss him.

I worked with Woody at Simplot Soilbuilders in Sunnyside Washington. During our time time together, I enjoyed working with and getting to know this very humble, gentle man. He often would share his faith in God with me as we shared about various things from the Bible. I often wondered about Woody and Georgia and now know that they both are with the Lord.

Aunt Linda was such a full of life person. My brothers and I always loved sleep overs at uncle Allen and Aunt Linda’s. We would stay up all night with Kim and Shelly and she never said a word. It had been too long, and I guess that was my fault. It was good to see family that had been living their own lives and know that everyone is doing well. Good bye Aunt Linda. I will remember you often. Laura

Mark gave us reason to smile and was constantly reminding us to do that. “Keep a smile on the front”

Thank you Dad for the examples you set in life. So much more than merely one of my parents, you were also my friend. You will be missed.

The first time I saw Turk, he had lots of beautiful red curly hair. The next time I saw him after he served in South Pacific in Coast Guard in WWII, he had lost all his hair. He was quite a young man then and I was sorry to see his bald head. He was a good brother-in-law to me for a great many years.

Uncle Turk has been a part of my life for over 65 years. He was always good natured and friendly. I remember him playing with my brothers and I when we were children. He loved a good joke and also loved to pull practical jokes. I will miss him very much.

The first time I met Linda was when we were learning the lantern project. She is a wonderful woman. Her and Al made you feel at home from the time that you got there until you left. I called her daughter one time as my husband and i was going to the Island because I told him how beautiful it was there. Linda told Shelly to make sure we try this place and where the best antique stores were. Al and Linda definitely made a lasting impression on me. My prayers are with all of you and Thank you for the honor of knowing Linda if even only for a short time.
God Bless you all!

I recall the first time I met Linda, she was in the shop on the Island sodering LED’s. Somehow, I could tell she was ready to do other things with her time. I’m glad we were able to relieve her of that task.

I know it’s hard for all of the family, a great wife, mother and grandmother has been lost.

I’ve always thought the “Island” to be a special place. However she is in an even more special place now. Our thoughts are with you all.

The Holcomb family:
Pinky was the greatest. She made everyone feel special. Pinky and Dale’s trips to Az. always brought much happiness. Sharon and I had the pleasure of taking them on a day trip traveling Az.. What fun and memories we had. They would invite us to there home. That was always high on our list of things to do but didn’t happen.

The Miller family sends its love

Holly and Family:
So sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. When I got the news from Holly I had to make that sad phone call to my own Mom. Margie and Pinkie have been friends for as long as I can remember, and always kept in touch. Mom told me that she had talked to Pinkie recently and Pinkie had told her that it was probably their last visit. She also said she was “ready” and wanted to “just get it over with.” That sounded like the Pinkie I remember….no non-sense, to the point! It is no wonder these two strong women remained good friends all these years. I think they got tough raising all of us kids, and then kept in contact to see how it all turned out, and to enjoy stories from the past. Pinkie and Margie sure could talk, and half the time they’d be laughing. It is a joy for me to know that my mother had a friend like Pinkie, and I know she’ll miss her.

Holly, Debbie,Mike and Jeff

Was very sad when I found out Aunt Pinky passed away. I was very fortunate to have known Aunt Pinky even though I didn’t get to spend but a few hours with her and Uncle Dale over the past 50 years. She was unforgetable and in my eyes never changed a bit from my teens to the last time I saw her a few years back. Always positive, very happy, very loving and a larger than life person. I will miss her as well as I do Uncle Dale, who too was a truly remarkable person, but will hold onto the pleasent memories I have of Aunt Pinky and Uncle Dale. Bless you Holly and Debbie for caring for her in her final days. I know it was difficult.

Love and strength to you all
Your cousin Steve

Mike, Holly, Jeff & Debbie,

My love and sincere sympathy. What a sweetheart she was – always smiling – and that wonderful laugh. As Mom used to say, ” Pinky brightened any room she walked into.” Some people have a gift for making you feel special and loved, and that was Aunt Pinky’s gift to all of us. The last few years of Mom’s life, when she was battling Alzheimer’s, she called me Pinky. What an honor. It happened so often, I didn’t correct her, as I think she really believed she was talking to Pinky. Now the three girls are together again. Can you imagine the conversation? No angel will get a word in! God’s best to you and your families. You kids were ALWAYS the center of her universe.
