Sincere sympathy to all of Ione’s surviving family. May God’s peace comfort and sustain you, knowing that Ione has reached her heavenly home. We can one day be reunited with her! Her life has been long and active. Ione accomplished much, faithfully serving the Lord she loved and demonstrating that love through service to others. I have been blessed to be among the recipients of her joyous, faithful service. Ione touched many people and created a remarkable legacy.

I was sad to read that your Ione has passed on to Glory. Sad for you and me, but, she is rejoicing being with the Lord she so loved and her many loved ones. I so loved her and she loved me back. Her heart was always open to let another into her circle of love and caring. She loved her family so much and her community. She worked many hours at the Senior Center especially at pie baking time and at First Baptist Church serving in many capacities. Moss never grew under her feet. I will miss the smile that was often on her face, her cinnamon rolls and her love. Ione was a blessing to me and to those around her. I Thank the Lord for having Ione be a part of my life.
