Our hearts hurt for all of you; a part of my childhood is gone. May the knowledge that love never ends bring you comfort and peace.
So sorry to see you go marlene, had so many parties with you and Loren when we lived in the townhomes, you never forgot about us when we moved, visited you and Loren once in a while and enjoyed your company.
I am very sorry for your family’s loss. Many people have found comfort in the words of encouragement found in the bible at Acts 24:15
Dear Vicki and Family, Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We are so very sorry you lost your Mom and Grandma, please accept our deepest condolences. Eric & Ann
My heart is heavy for all of you. The world has lost an amazing lady. To me she was the Aunt who was always there for me to talk to, confide in and share stories. She was truly a blessing to anyone who knew her and she will be missed dearly. Praying that you may all find comfort in your memories of her knowing you are all her legacy. She loved her family fiercely and you were all her pride and joy. I wish I could be there to give each one of you a big hug. Love you all so much…
