Dear Jack, Kevin, Brian and your families -  Going to the cemetery, I couldn't help but think of the old A. P. Carter song, "Lord, I told the undertaker, 'Undertaker, please drive slow, For this body you are hauling, I hate to see her go.'  Will the circle be unbroken bye and bye, Lord, bye and bye; there's a better home awaiting - in the sky Lord, in the sky."  And that is the certain promise that all of us who know the Lord believe:  One glorious morning when God calls us home - there we will be with our dear departed loved ones - and then the circle will finally be complete.  

Although I did not know your mom,  because I know you - I know how kind and loving she was.  All of us who have lost our moms, look back with older eyes and wiser hearts and begin to realize the measure of their steadfast love towards us - the depth of their tenderness, their unending patience, their forgiveness.  

I pray sincerely that God will put down layers of peace in your hearts, and comfort you with the steady, unwavering faith that Anne Boland now walks with the Kings of Kings!  In the words of the poet, "She has slipped the surly bonds of earth / Put out her hand / and touched the face of God." 

All my love,  Peg Van Patton (Dave's sister)

I did not know Anne Devine Boland, but have had the privilege of knowing her son, John "Jack" P. Boland of Warminster, and based on the fine, loving and absolute faithful son Anne raised, I would say her entire life was a great success.  So very sorry to the family for your many losses recently.  Blessings to you all.

Mrs. Boland was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever met. I am sending my love and prayers to her family; especially my friend Cheri.  You have many angels watching over you now.

Brian and Family,
My heart truly goes out to you and all of your family.  Her love for you and all will never fade.

On Sunday Aug 19th Anne Boland left this earth and arrived on heavens shores into the arms of her loving Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. ˜The Lord is my Sheppard" could very well have been her life verse as she lived each day trusting in Him.  She loved the Lord and raised her family to love and serve Him their whole life as she did.
There are many broken hearts and tear dampened cheeks among her remaining family and friends today, but we in the family of faith all look forward to that great resurrection morning when we shall be reunited and spend all eternity together with the Lord.
I extend my sincere sympathies and condolences to the entire Boland family and my prayers, love and concern go out to you.
                                              In Christian love,
                                              Dave Lennox

Jack, our sincere condolences on the passing of your mother, Anne Boland. We were privileged to have known her through our friendship with you and Marti. She was a lovely lady who will be remembered by all whose lives she touched.

It was my good fortune to know your lovely mother as a neighbor and friend. Her strength, her kindness and generosity and her trust in God were wonderful examples to those around her.  She will be missed, but always remembered.  May she rest in peace.

When there is love......any life is too short. Brian, my heart goes out to you and your family.

your friend,

Dear Jack, Kevin, Brian and family members,

Please accept my sincere sympathy on the death of Aunt Anne.  She was a beloved aunt and also a friend I treasured.  I loved getting her recipes, her opinions on life, and her prayers whenever I would request them.  She was a wonderful woman who lived every day honoring the Lord in prayer and kindness toward others. She is in heaven now and surrounded by her family and in the arms of Jesus.  Rest in peace, Aunt Anne, your journey is ended and you are home.  Love, Betty and Bill Wheaton
