My visits with Uncle Jim and Aunt Marie and my cousins, Elizabeth, Susan and Ellen were highlights of my family's trips to Winchester. I loved to see her smile at me. My thoughts are with all of you and your families in this time of loss.

Mrs. Keller was one of the nicest people I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. She always inquired about me, well after I left Winchester. My parents would always keep me up to date when I was away, and when I was in town I loved sitting with her and hearing her stories. She will be truly missed. Misty

I am so sorry for your loss. My mother passed a little over two years ago and not a day goes by that I don't think of her. All I can add is my belief that as long as we keep them in our heart, no loved one is ever truly gone.

For Marie's family, I got to know Marie about 25 years ago through PEO. For several years she was in my carpool, and our drives to and from the meetings were just as much fun as the meetings themselves. I looked forward to hearing about her grandchildren, her flowers, and other exciting events in her life. She was always cheerful and positive. Her big smile, friendliness, and sage advice will be greatly missed.

So sorry for the loss of your Mother. I worked with her at DMMS and appreciated her love of the students. I was able to reconnect with her through Blue ridge Democratic Women and visiting friend at the village. Sending hugs and prayer to you and your families.
Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Liz, Ellen, and Susan, I am so sorry for the loss of your mother. Throughout the years I have known Liz, I have enjoyed hearing about the lives of both your parents. Your mom's involvement in the community, the many stories of the jeans store, and your dad's wonderful jokes. They were filled with life and life was filled for them with children, grandchildren and friends. My heart and thoughts are with you all.

So very sorry to hear about the death of Mrs. Keller. My sympathy goes out to all the Keller girls and families. Marie was a good friend to my mother which goes back to Parkway Ave before any of us were born. Her deep faith and friendship helped my mother through her illness. I remember her as a good Sunday school teacher during my early years and also remember a few sleepovers with Elizabeth. I have fond memories of both Mr & Mrs Keller. May God Bless you all.
