Can't believe it's been over 3 years since I visited mom's site. I think of her every day and thank her for her strength in times of challenges, love given freely and unconditionally, kindness to every person she met, even strangers, and to be true to yourself and your soul. And of course her consistent faith in God and her following of Jesus' ways. She would always say, 'what would Jesus do'.
Love you forever Fernie. Miss you lots.

I'm sure you have already shared a cup of coffee together, mom. Wes passed away last Friday in Riverside County Hospital. He now has joined you and all the family. I know you both are together in peace and with the love of your God. I love you both.

Karen - At four am I woke up with a bad feeling. I went on-line searched and read your mothers obituary, which confirmed my fear. There are lots of memories going back to1973. She was a hoot, someone that no one would forget with that forever smile, bouncy personality....and that voice! You two were a matched set. Sorry for your loss. Sincerely, Paul Alfieri

Happy May 1st Mom...you never forgot to wish Westy and me "Happy 1st of every month". This was another tradition of hers. Always appreciating every day, every hour of every year.

The words below are written by Howard "H" Shaw, one of mom's dearest friends she met at Denison University, Granville, Ohio, and my dad's best friend. The three of them shared a wonderful friendship, even after mom's divorce. Howie was a devoted friend to my dad and has been very supportive to Westy and me over the years. I am deeply honored to know him and grateful for his wisdom and guidance. Since he was unable to reach this website, he sent me an email from him webtv account. This is what he wrote:
Fernie and I were good friends for sixty three years. Her effervescent personality and wonderful sense of humor never failed to warm my heart She was like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day and it was, of course, a great pleasure to be her friend.
She will not be forgotten. H Shaw

Well my first Thanksgiving without mom. I missed her but knew she was here with me. Such fond memories of past Thanksgiving's! So I am so thankful for having such a wonderful mother, teacher, mentor, listener and best friend. Miss you mom. I also read in the paper that mom's good friend Mary Osborne passed away this week. Now mom has another person to chum around with in Heaven. She and Mary shared many good times, their love of life and family. God bless them both.

In the four months since I was last with Fern, I've thought of her often. During the 33 years I knew her, there were countless moments to remember. All wonderful, because those are the ones you remember. I met Fern soon after I met Karen in the mid-seventies and shortly after that, Fern met my mother, Irene. That began 20 years of a foursome that enjoyed Fernie's trips to Boston, Holiday dinners, and laughter-filled weekend getaways ( where we all took turns having "one too many" and laughing until we peed our pants!) Both Fernie and Irene loved their Manhattans so you can just imagine. A wonderful bond was created as Karen and I planned adventures for us, drove to those destinations, schlepped suitcases, booked dinner reservations, and took charge while we watched our mothers laugh and be silly. We loved our mothers, we enjoyed our mothers, we shared our mothers and we took care of our mothers. My journey with my mother ended 13 years ago, but in a special way, continued with my relationship with Fern, my second mother. It was a blessing for me to be able to be with Fern and Karen at the end to complete the journey we started so long ago. Miss you both always, Joan Hand

One thing mom used to do was call Westy and me the first of every month and say "Happy (whatever month) 1st!" She did that as far as I can remember when I was living in Boston in the early 80's. When we lived together she would play a game with Wes and try to beat him to it before he said it to her. Just one of many special memories that I will share on this site. The holidays are coming and she loved them both, especially Christmas. I will share of few memories of this wonderful holiday later. Miss you Fernie!

Hard to believe mom has been gone over 2 months. I miss her! But now I am remembering all our wonderful times together, before her illness, and the love she surrounded me with everyday. I am so blessed to have had her as my mom. She taught me so much about life and living it fully. I feel her on my shoulder daily. I love you mom.

Dear Fernie,
I remember when you and Karen helped me move into my Golfview condo. That's when I realized I had met special friends. Your compliments and enthusiasm for my new place both sparked and comforted me and after we christened it with laughs and beverages, it became home. I'm so happy you came to the Pan Am porch party last Christmas and hold a special memory of you. Your radiant smile touched me, too, and lives on in your beautiful children and our hearts. I feel the breeze from your wings ;) Amy

Fern, Fran, Dick Bridgman and I were the Senior Class Editors of the Pot-O-Gold, the DeVilbiss High yearbook in 1945, our graduation year. Dick and I were glad to share this job with the twins because it meant we spent many hours with them in the recreation room of their home on Kenwood Boulevard. They were lovely and talented girls and I loved them both. Jim Proctor, Toledo.

I had the pleasure of getting to know Fern and her daughter, Karen, over the last 3 years. It's hard to express in words how they both have affected my life. Although my time with them was limited they both were rays of sunlight in a sometime weary day. Fern for her enduring, never ending smile and Karen for her steadfast courage, patience, love and tolerance. Fern will be greatly missed by all of us who were lucky enough to know her. The good part is she lives on in her children... thank God for eternity through our children. Suffer no more my friend... Peace Be With You, and Karen... may find that Peace that passes ALL understanding, it is time now to celebrate your own life. Our Condolences and Warmest Regards, Bobby and Linda Craig and Rexee Gaugh

I have never met anyone as kind, sincere, vibrant and full of laughter as Fernie, I only wish I could have been a part of her life a lot longer. She was always so full of energy, ready to go go go and loved to tell her stories. No matter how sick she was she made ever effort to make us smile and laugh. I will never forget how happy she was that I was the one to buy her little Toyota, making me promise to take good care of it. I wanted to take her for a ride when it turned to 100,000, today she turned to 99,994. ;-( . I will pray they have a hugh supply of lipstick and scratch off"s for you. God bless and know that you will be dearly missed. Upon an Angel's Wing Fernie and Gods speed to the family. Love, Maryann

What a wonderful mother you were. You taught me so much about the meaning of life and guided me through my life with words of wisdom. You taught me to be me and stay true to myself regardless of whatever anyone said. You will always be my guiding light. I will love you always and know you will always be beside me..

Dear Fern,
You came into my life via Westy/Karen when I was of the ripe old age of 11(1964). I remember thinking how beautiful you were and that you looked like Ann Margaret the movie star.
Fern you were so warm and loving. I felt you took me under your wing and welcomed me in your life and home.
Through the years I had the pleasure of spending time with you and Karen. It was a journey back in time and just like my earlier years; I felt warmth in my heart.
The memories are so fond and endless. I feel so blessed to have had you in my life.
Rest in peace and know you will never be forgotten.
Marilyn Figlarz Etcoff
Cling to the memories and let them find their way to heal you. The love and laughter, the joy in the togetherness you shared, will make you strong.

Fern, you touched me so with your vibrancy, your unique style, your effervescence, your kindness and devotion to your family. That wide smile, husky voice and joyful laugh lit every room you entered. I will always recall fondly the trip you and Karen made to Pembroke Pines after I left St. Petersburg. Coffee at Starbucks on Miami Beach, dinner at the Cuban restaurant near my apt. Though we cannot see you in your physical form now, your presence will be felt in flowers, gentle rain, warm sand, and all the joys G_d has blessed us with, as He did with the gift of you. Your abiding radiance will light the way and one day we all will meet again. Love and thanks, Penny

I remember Fern well. We, Westy and me, would get into trouble together and we would have to have a meeting with Fern. It became evident that she felt I was a bad influence - that feeling lasted only until Westy blossomed fully. Eventually we all had a good laugh about all the sleep she lost due to Westy and me. Fern was a loving and understanding Mother and I know she will be sorely missed by Westy and Karen. I will miss her as well.
Fern was pretty easy on the eyes. As young men we all thought she was the hottest Mom in the neighborhood - a real looker!

When I was about 10 and playing on a baseball team at Grove Patterson, after the game one day, Mom piled the whole team in our 55 Chevy Belaire and she drove around in circles on the asphalt area in back of the school as fast as she could!?!? That is something me and the team will never forget!
