So so very sorry about Jeanette, I had been searching for her for some time, we went to grade school together at Hawthorne and East High in Sioux City, and I ran across some of our school photos. We lost track after she moved to Cedar Rapids, but I thought of her often, also her sister Loretta, I drive by their childhood home often, if you would like I will share her school photos. My deepest sympathy.

I am so very sorry to hear of the loss of your Mom. We were in Europe when you had the funeral and I am saddened that I could not attend and give you all my condolences in person. Some of my fondest childhood memories took place with you and your Mom. I remember going to your house in Kindergarten and she had made Kool-Aid ice cubes and I thought that was the coolest thing I had ever known anyone to “invent”. I remember all the times in middle school when Sherry and I rode our mopeds over and stayed at your home (trying to be quiet while she slept after a long night of work) because we always knew she was the most welcoming and fun Mom. We could ask her advice and her opinions and she would always answer with great love and care—even when were causing trouble! She even was my nurse at Mercy during the birth of my first child and it was so special to have her with me. When I think of her it will always be of her smiling. I know how much she loved all of you and I think that heaven has a beautiful new angel to look over you every day. Susie (Aldershof) Van Metre

Kelly , Jackie, Laura, Sandy and Sherry I'm so sorry for the loss of your mother. I feel like I loss a mother also. I remember all the times I was at your house where your mom would dance around and always have a smile on her face. I also remember the love you can see when your mom and dad looked at each other. I did not get off work yesterday early enough to come to the service but I was there with you in thought. It was a hard day and I want you to know I'm here for you. Now they we have found each other again please keep in touch. Your mom loves every one of you in her own special way. Honor her and stay close and be there for each other. Love you my dear friends, Connie Parrish-Heidemann

Although I had lost touch with Jan after she retired from Mercy I will always remember her fondly. She befriended me when I started working 3rd shift at age 19 at Mercy. She helped me out of many a jam during the night shift, looking for certain supplies for the nursing floors, etc. I also worked with Kelly a short time when she worked at Mercy. I am sorry for the loss to your family. Jan was a real gem. Thanks, Grant Carter Cedar Rapids

Jackie, I am so so sorry for this loss. You have been a remarkable and devoted daughter caring for your mom in your home and serving her with such love and sacrifice. I'm praying that you will have grace in this transition, and peace throughout all the changes this means for your daily life. I'm looking forward to seeing you and catching up when you return. Love, Hannah

i am sorry i didn't see the obituary until too late to attend any of the services. knowing jan she is happy to be no longer a person with alzheimers. she was always so full and energy and ready to go. i worked with jan for many years on the birthplace and so enjoyed it. she could always see what needed to be done before you told her. i don't think i ever heard her complain when you asked her to do something. be assured you--her family-- are in my prayers. i know she will continue to watch over all of you and keep you going in the right direction. truly she was a good grand lady and as i said she was a joy to work with. God be with all of you during this difficult time. sincerely ellen

In lasting memory of a beloved sister, a truly wonderful person who touched so many people and made a difference in so many lives. Today you are in my thoughts, tonight I will remember you in my prayers. Always you will be in my heart. Our love is forever and ever. Loretta, Dan, Michael, Joni and Steve Mathers

Janice & I are saddened to hear of your loss, and will keep your family in our thoughts and prayers.

She is gone to a better place than she has ever known and she so deserves.

My thoughts and prayers to all the Dyball Girls. I have fond memories of your mom being so nice and friendly when we were all hanging out together at your house on Sheridan Ln. God Blless, Glenn

Dyball Family, The passing of your mother has made me sad. I loved her sense of humor, she also had a good laugh. I has the most respect for the way she was so open minded and wasn't judgemental. She was a kind sweet spirit. I hope you are all doing well. May you find comfort. Vicky

I am so very sorry to learn of the passing of Mrs. Dyball. I remember her very well as a pleasant, thoughtful, and caring parent when I had two of her daughters years ago in my second grade class at Wright School in Cedar Rapids. My sincerest sympathy is extended at this sad time to all of the Dyball family.

Laura, Sandra and family, I'm sorry for your loss. Your mom was a wonderful lady and will be missed by all. I so remember her smile. Keep those good memories close. You are in my thoughts and prayers. Stacey

To all the Dyball girls, please accept our condolence and sympathy. From your long ago childhood friends, the Sheronicks. Peace to you all.

To the family, we had so many good memories of Jeanette and times Bob and I spent with her and Jerry, you have my deepest sympathy

Mama thank you for who I am, thank you for all the things I'm not. Forgive me for the words unsaid and for the times I forgot. Mama remember all my life, you showed me love, you sacrificed. Think of those young and early days, how I've changed along the way. And I know you believed and I know you had dreams, and I'm sorry it took all this time to see, that I am where I am because of your truth and I miss you. Mama forgive the times you cried, forgive me for not making right all of the storms I may have caused and I've been wrong, dry your eyes. Mama I hope this makes you smile, I hope you're happy with my life. At peace with every choice I've made and how I've changed along the way, cause I know you believed in all of my dreams and I owe it all to you, mama. I love you, Laura
