BarDee Jensen Jensen (1924 - 2011)

My brother in-law Kelly's mother passed away last week. She was a wonderful lady. I'm glad she was able to return home and see her dear husband again. 

I love what my niece Zoey Michelle said on her facebook: 'Graduation ceremony' for my grandma was wonderful today! She is now with Grandpa and so many others in a much better place without pain. Happy day!
