I am sorry for your loss.
Dearest Klaiber Family, We have no words, so very sorry to see this hard on the heart news. Your Mom and Dad were and are the real deal. Just the memories of open houses at school with them were remarkable with energy and always a positive discussion. Parent Lottery, you kids are the true winners. Teacherlove Larry and K8 Nekuza

Our condolences to Butzie, her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren. We will always remember her bright face, infectious laugh and welcoming smile. You knew you were always welcome at her home and an offer of a refreshing beverage would soon be coming. God bless.
We didn’t see her often, but when we did, she was always so much fun. She was such a beautiful lady, inside and out, and we know she will be missed.
Carol and I would like to offer our condolences for Aunt Jane’s passing. It was a pleasure knowing her.
Sincerely,
