I have been trying to find the words to post here but it’s very hard. Your passing truly hurts my heart. I am so happy that the kids, Terry and I got to meet you in person a few weeks ago. Thank you for making my dad happy and getting him to do things he would have normally never even entertained.
I know exactly how your kids are feeling right now and my heart goes out to them.
You will truly be missed

The Juvenile Court for Sumner County mourns this loss. She was a tireless champion of the children in her care. I only hope that the kids and families that she worked with understand the depth of her love for them. She will be missed.
To Iris' family, I pray that peace and comfort find you. May the Lord keep you during these tough times. May His hand guide you, and may His arms hold you.
