    Laura and family, It is so hard to lose mother and she looked to be the very best of mothers! My prayers are with you that God's great heaven will be even more real to you and you will have much comfort that mom is very much alive and you will see her again some day. Hope that all your friends in Laramie will be there for you too! Love, Margey and family in California.

    Sorry to hear of your loss. I worked with Vina May at the High School and she was a wonderful person to work with. She also gave me advice about music and was always very helpful. She will be missed by all. Don Shoefelt

    Vina May was a wonderful and very talented woman. I remember walking home after elementary school with Barbara to take my piano lessons from Vina May. How she found the time to do that, I will never know, as she was a wonderful homemaker for her large family as well as a talented hobbyist. She was such a beautiful woman, inside and out.

    Laura, Jean, Paul, Bonner family We are saddened for your loss. One of my fondest memories is sitting around the living room with Vina May and Dean , sipping wine and talking after we completed the Wednesday night's national guard drill. Dean was a mentor to me, but I also learned a lot about life and relationships from Vina. My wife, Charlie, got to know both of them after we married, and enjoyed our visits, too. We both considered the Logan family as great friends, and will miss Vina very much. She was a beautiful and thoughtful lady. David and Charlie Wright Sheridan, WY (back from Alaska)

    Vina May was always so kind and generous to me; it meant and still means a lot to me. I so fondly remember making Christmas cookies with Barb and Vina May - a young, Hindu girl newly arrived from India. Your family welcomed me and included me in so many of your family activities - especially the sleepovers. Much love and thanks, Vina May. You will be missed by family and friends.

  • Linda Paul

    Laura & Gene, what a lovely tribute. I see where both of you get your beauty and style. I never knew your mom. I see now, that was my loss. May lovely memories tide you both through this difficult transition.

  • Kevin & Annie Bonner

    Grandma is deep in our hearts, and her example of kindness and unconditional love will continue to influence us for the rest of our lives. We will miss her so much. It is wonderful to think of what she is doing now, and who she is with. May God communicate our love to her, wherever she has gone. Surely wherever it is, it is better for having her there.
