Kordell Cripps, your grandmother would be ashamed of the comments you leave on Instagram. Harassing innocent people over absolutely nothing... good thing you have such an uncommon name listed directly on your profile so we can hold you accountable :)

To the family of Ida Poage: I am so sorry to hear of your great loss! I am retired school employee of Barlow Granger School on southside of Des Moines. We always had the best conversations, met for lunch, and business seminars. She was a beautiful person! When was serving Scott School, my husband, the late Phil Tindrell was the Assistant Principal there. We always enjoyed Ida, she was very efficient on her job for the schools. I have wonderful memories of Ida. Sorry I will not be able attend the service Friday due to the weather and all the snow in front of my garage.
With sincere sympathy,

Ida was such a very special person.
Her sense of humor was a delight.
She knew more about Jackson School and the families
than any one else.
She was such a dear friend. She will be missed by
many but will be remenbered in so many special ways.
Our deepest sympathy on your loss,
Janean and Tom Faux
