    Dear Family, I have so many great memories of Lida over the past 60 years. She always let me play softball with the "big folks". Always enjoyed spending time with her; Heiney, too. I loved all the big equipment they had. She was a lady of few words but you knew she genuinely cared for all those who knew her. Lida, you've won the race - I'll see you in Heaven when I get there. Love and Prayers to your family. Martha Jo

    I am sorry to hear of Lida's passing, she was a nice lady. I grew up south of Secor near some pasture land that she and Heinie owned. I will always remember them working the cattle together and how they were good neighbors and friends to my parents Gerald and Sally Detweiler. Michael Detweiler
