In Loving Memory

I just wanted to post a short simple memorial for Gem Winder, Trent's Grandmother.
Gem Passed way Tuesday the 6th Of January after having a massive stroke a week prior. We were fortunate enough to have been in Idaho Falls For New Year and were able to go and see her with the children before she passed. She was not awake when we saw her but I could feel a very comfortable spirit in the room and It has made her passing more of a comfort.
Trent lived in the same home with Gem for 7 or 8 years before he moved out and has a great love for her. We have a great love and respect for Gem. She was a very strong women. She loved to paint and had done some beautiful work there. She had a love of her lounge chair and her soaps... got to love that! She taught me how to play many a card game and when ever I play pinnacle I will think of her. She taught me how to hang clothing on the line without them feeling stiff afterwards!
She was a wonderful woman and she will be missed.
We love you Gem!
Funneral Services have been scheduled for Saturday. We will not be able to attend, but hope that other that are close can.

My condolences to the family. It is always a difficult time, but we know, as I know you do, that she is in a much better place, shedding the failing body and moving to her perfect one! Our love
