My Grandmother was the most loving person I knew who ALWAYS wanted peace in life no matter the circumstance. I will always have the memories pressed between the pages of my mind with her my Grandfather & the rest of my family with me forever. She taught me how to love unconditionally, how to accept people for who they truly are, and how to become a more well rounded person in life. I will miss her and my Grandfather forever, but this world is not my home I'm just passing by. I shall meet them both in glory when I'm called home with my Heavenly Father. Ruth Papastergion will ALWAYS be LOVED, REMEMBERED, and NEVER FORGOTTEN!!! I LOVE you Grandma xoxoxoxo

It may not be too late Mom but here is what you wanted read at your funeral: This Old Clay House When I am through with this old clay house of mine, when no more guide lights through the windows shine, just box it up and lay it away,with the other clay houses of yesterday. And my friends, do try if you can to forgive the wrongs, since first I began to live in this house. Bury deep and forget, I want to be square and out of debt, when I meet the Great Architect Supreme,face to face, I want to be clean. Of course I know it's too late to mend a bad builded house when we come to the end,but you who are building just look over mine,and male your alterations while there is yet time. Study carefully the plans, no tears should be shed,it's like any old house when the tenant has fled. I've lived in this house many days all alone,just waiting and oh how I long to go home. Please don't misunderstand me, this old World's divine,with its love, birds,flowers and glorious sunshine, it's a wonderful place and a wonderful plan and a wonderful wonderful gift to man, but somehow I feel , when the circle's complete, there are loved ones across we are anxious to meet. So we open the books, and check up the past no more forced balance ,this is the last. Each item is checked, each page must be clean, it's our passport, you know, to our Builder Supreme. So when I am through with this old house of clay, just box it up and lay it away, for the Builder has Promised, when this one is spent, to have one all ready from the timber u have sent,while I lived in this one. Now if it's built poorly, well then tis our loss, cause it's made of material we send across. You ask what material is best to select. Twas told you long sins by the Great Architect, A new Commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another as I have loved you. So the finest material to send up above is, pure straight grained timber of Brotherly Love....

Grandma, You have your mansion over the hilltop now ! So many wonderful things said and felt by so many loved ones - I hope you knew how very much you meant to so very many people. You will be missed, but you will never be forgotten. Your legacy of your Christian faith lives on in generations after you. Well done, Well done, good and faithful servant - go get your crown. I love you.

You were a great mother in law to me. We all have good memories of you in our hearts. Love you dearly, always miss you. So grateful for letting me into your son's life.God is so good! One day we will all meet on that peaceful shore to be together.

My family may feel pain but my dearest grandmother is now free from all suffering! <3

I thank each and everyone that shared their comments and condolences,thank you from the bottom of my heart. To know my mother was to know someone with unconditional love for everyone. She and I would often sing;this world is not my home were just passing through our treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue the Angels beckon me from Heavens open door and I can't feel at home in this world anymore...She is now with my dad who passed seven years ago and is finally Home. May God bless each of you and your households for being here for me in my time of sorrow and loss and yet rejoicing in God' grace and goodness.

Grandma I'll always think of you laughing with hardly any teeth..but always findig and seeing the best in everyone..You will be missed by many but all we picture is you in your glorified perfect body dancing on those streets of gold..love you Gma Xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxo

Dear mother my hero I can't come to begin to write what a wonderful, kind, forgiving, compassionate, understanding, the list goes on I'm missing you so much it hurts in my heart that I can't explain you believe in me when nobody else would that made me the man I've become thank you I'll never forget you telling me when I would fall down in life you would say "DON'T QUIT QUITTING" that stayed in my mind to concour all my challenges in life.
