MOSCHETTI, Honey Roehler

Passed away August 25, 2018

HRM

Honora Geraldine Roehler

I was born May 6, 1936.

I am the fourth of five children of Waldemar and Madelynne (Kerwin) Roehler.

I was named after my Mother's Mother.

My twin sister, born 6 minutes after me, Madelynne Mary Roehler, was named after our Mother.

Our names throughout our lives have been Honey and Lynne.

I have so many wonderful memories of growing up and always having a very best friend. A twin.

We grew up in Chicago and lived a fairy-tale life, and to us it was.

Our older sister Joan was 12 years older and married as we grew up.

Our oldest brother Waldemar Jr. (Bucky) was 10 years older and the sweetest person we ever knew besides our Mother. He died at the age of 40, and a light went out in the world.

Our next brother Robert was 6 years older and, although alive today, never a big part of our lives. To this day.

The magic of a twin sister is making memories and always remembering.

In early 1949, Mother, Lynne and I moved to Tucson, Arizona. The Wild West and we loved it.

We treasured our "own" company and the fun we had: unpaved streets ready for dams to be built, horses to ride all over the city, AND BASEBALL! The Cleveland Indians.

Always had my sister as we would go to school and enter a new world of friends and neighbors.

It was a wonderful time for us. So different from Chicago but we enjoyed the change, and Mother did her best to see that we had fun. Mother was so very special. Can't put it into words, but we were incredibly blessed.

Daughter Joan (Joey) Barbara was born in 1956. She is a great deal like my Mother and my sister Lynne.

Henry Moschetti came into our lives in 1966 and has remained there ever since. He adopted Joey, and we have been a fabulous family together.

Our lives have moved us many times, and always we enjoy the people around us.

As this is the last stop on my journey, please know, if you are reading this, that you were an indelible force to me.

Life is to be lived and surrendered with Love.

Honey

There was also RV Camping done annually, with many of their adventures in the Eastern Sierra Mountains. He was a very compassionate and passionate man whose main passion was fishing.

SICKLER, Dr. James Russell

of Anacortes, WA went to be with the Lord on August 28, 2018. Jim died peacefully, yet somewhat unexpectedly in his home. He was with the love of his life, and bride of 33 years at the time of his death. Jim was born on November 30, 1941 in Tucson, Arizona. After graduating from the University of Arizona, he went to dental school at the University of Tennessee, Memphis where he graduated at the top of his class. His passion for flying started at an aeroclub while he was practicing dentistry in the United States Air Force. After his service, Jim created a wonderful dental practice back in Tucson, where he loved what he did every day for 30 years. During that time, Jim could be found enjoying life with unparalleled zest and passion. As an avid skier, ski instructor, pilot, mentor, tennis player and athlete, Jim was always up for a challenge. His desire to learn his way to perfection was evident in everything he did. Jim was a loving husband, proud Christian, loyal friend and an amazing father. During his multiple battles with cancer, Jim displayed courage, strength, humor, love and humility. Throughout his life, the times spent with family and friends were the most meaningful and impactful to him. He felt incredibly blessed by the many friendships he had over the years. His fierce love touched so many lives, and his spirit will be missed by all. Jim is survived by his wife, Barbara Sickler; his children, Tripp Sickler, Mari Sickler, Billy Casey and Christine Casey and nine grandchildren. Jim is also survived by his sister, Kate Heineman, many loving nieces, nephews and dear friends. Memorial Service will be held at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, September 7, 2018 at Our Saviour's Lutheran Church in Stanwood, WA, with a reception to follow. In lieu of flowers, we request donations be made to St. Jude's Children's Research Hospital to the James R. Sickler Gift Fund.
