On December 1, 2006, "The Gang," as my mother affectionately used to call us, lost a dear friend to a 14-year battle with cancer. Marianne Johnson was adopted into our circle of friends back in 1976—more than 30 years ago. She will forever be remembered for her energy and enthusiasm for sports of all kind. Her ability to converse with anyone that she came into contact with was unmatched.

Marianne left behind her husband, Howard, devoted father of their three wonderful children, Benjamin (18), Matthew (16) and Kimberly (14).

May she rest in peace.

 

Cindy's mom, Harryette Kaye Grose, passed away on March 17, 2007.

Harryette was born April 10, 1941, in Helena Montana, to Harry and Leona Kovich. She was a devoted wife and mother and with her husband, Jim Grose, spent 43 years of marriage raising four children and enjoying three granchildren.

     

Four months after Cindy's mom died, Cindy's grandmother passed away.

Leona Katherine "Blondie" Kovich, age 86, of East Helena, passed away peacefully on July 29, 2007 with her husband of 66 years at her side.

Leona was born in Helena on March 25, 1921, to Charles Peter and Agnes (Tobol) Hegman. Leona is survived by her husband, Harry of East Helena; son, Loren; son-in-law, Jim Grose; sister-in-law, Virgie Hegman; six grandchildren, Tim, Cindy, Mike, Daniel, Kurt and Katie; great-grandchildren, Kevin and Amanda, Elizabeth and Katherine, and Logan.
