I just wanted to let the family know how very sorry I am for there loss. I only met her a few times when she came to Elkhart for my Grandpa's b-day (Son Marcontell) but I thought she was just so sweet and cute. She reminded me so much of Grandpa (Son). I know what a sad time this is, but I rejoice that she is in Heaven with Jesus and having a happy family reunion and that soon we'll all be reunited with our dear loved ones. My prayers go out to all of you for peace and comfort in this time of sorrow.
Larry, We are saddened by the news and know that everyone will miss your mom. Sorry we were unable to come to the funeral home and the service. We send our sincere condolences and pray for you and your family during this time. Pamela and Gary McCown
My family has fond memories of Mrs. Wise. Always such a dear lady. Our prayers and thoughts will be with her family today.
I know Mrs Wise will be missed. She is one in my many of childhood memories as growing up as a neighbor. Always felt welcome in her home. Always had the utmost respect for her never until today what her first name was because she was always Mrs. Wise to me. My prayers an love go out to the entire family in the loss of a great mother not only to her children but all the children in the neighborhood that passed thru.
My grandma was nice lady. When she was sick, i took care of her whenever i could. She always had this way of making you feellik everything was okay even if it wasnt she always put people before her, which is why she was a nice caring person. I love You Granda, and I hope You and Grandpa Elmer are reunited together. Rest In Peace, Love Justin Wise
I feel very privileged to have known and been loved by such a wonderful woman. May you rest in peace and will eternally live in our hearts.
An icon for sure and a pillar in our little community. Mrs. Wise probably never knew the impact and Christian influence she had on several generations of us in Sheldon. My thoughts and prayers are with the family....sad time for us, but rejoicing in heaven.
To the Wise Family, so sorry for your loss. I worked with Larry and Charlie Wise at Ford Motor Co., Mrs Wise has some great Son's so I know she was a great woman. May Mrs Wise R.I.P
Such a nice lady that my Mom loved so much. She lived a wonderful life and made many people feel good with that lovely smile.
