Listed by Longevity

Loved ones who have passed are organized in two ways: by age at passing (from oldest to youngest) and alphabetically by name.

Listed By Last Name

These lists serve as a quiet tribute to the generations who came before—those whose strength, sacrifices, and spirit helped shape the family we are today.

As you read through the names, we invite you to pause, reflect, and remember. Though these family members may no longer be with us, their love, laughter, and stories live on through us.
