August 1, 2026 at 4:53 pmJosh, Jacob, and your dad – I am so sorry to hear of the loss of JoBeth. She was always so nice to be around and I appreciated her smile and good spirit. I visited her at NHC a couple of months ago, and she was still the same! Smiling even through the circumstances. May God bless you as you remember your mother, and may you place your trust in Jesus that you will see her again. With love from your ol’ teacher.
