Mona was my friend, we worked together at A. M. G. She will be missed. My deepest sympathies to her family. She deeply loved her grand children.
Renee Fish says
Mona was a wonderful person and will be missed by everyone who was lucky enough to know her. Her grandchildren were her passion and we will be here to remind them of what kind of a grandmother they lost. She was a loving, caring person and I will miss her very much. Her laughter will stay with me forever. I love you Mona.

I haven\’t seen Mona in 33 years. I have often wondered about her during that time. We had good friendship in high school. I will carry the memories of her with me throughout my lifetime. My deepest sympathy to her family for their great loss of this beautiful woman.
Barbara Carlson says
What a loss to this world! Much too young to be gone so soon! Monie was a great gal an so much fun to be around, just like her Mom, Etta. I will never forget you gal, watching you grow up to be the beautiful person you became. I know you are with your Mom and your Aunt Freda now and someday God willing, we will all meet again. Blessings to all the family, hopefully the pain you bear today will be gone tomorrow.
Your friend, Barb

I knew you as a baby and I have seen you though the years, At one point in my live you was the best little baby doll I had to play with. I cant believe you have left the world so soon. But I know where you are you are happy and with our mother and I\’m sure she has a smile on her pretty face. .
Dianna Love says
May God comfort each and everyone that is feeling the pain for the loss of Mona. I know it was a bad situation when I was up there for Aunt Freda\’s passing, but I am so thankful for the time that I did get to spend with her. The cycle of life has us in so many places that we can\’t always be with whom we want to be with, or where we want to be. But I do know that God has controll of everything and it is all His timing and reason. Things like this should draw us closer to Him, not drive us away. No matter what know that He if good. So much prayers and love sent your way , from cousin Dianna Love, Dorothy Marie\’s daughter
