Gloria & I were good friends & I was sad to see she had passed on. We had so much fun at FtPeck watering our trees & living the good life, & how she & Jim liked to dance their favorite dance Jumbalaya. I always admired her go get-um attitude in life. Such a good person. You kids were fairly young when we moved from Sidney.

Best friends since high school when Shorty came in from country school. Best friends working in Sidney - her at State Farm, me at Larson Motors. Fun times at the Triangle and more! Best friends marrying best friends - Jim and Dennis. Best friends having our kids - Deedra and Brian who was born one month after my first son Shaun and being God parents to my daughter Shannon. Best friends moving apart - meeting at Class Reunions with our great Class of 1960 - Go Eagles! Meeting at Joann and Donnies in Fortine for celebrations of weddings, fishing and life. Best friends staying in touch always and never hanging up without saying "I love you"

Dear Deedra, Brian, Donny, Robert and families,
I have been thinking of all of you in the past weeks and hope that the many memories you and your families have will be shared often and well — with tears and with laughter! I remember the twinkle in her eye, the genuine warmth of her smile, and the giving of silver. When she would come to visit Mom and Dad (often with Frances), it was always so fun to listen to their conversations and share stories of when Dad first came to Montana and met his cousins. Treasure and share memories of her — Memories are God’s Blessing as a bridge to love our departed loved ones before we had run out of love to give. May they bide us all well until we all meet again in the Eternal Love of our Heavenly Father.
Love to you all,
Josy (Bidegaray) McLean
