Dear Mom, missing you more than words can say. Life as I knew it is no longer. Today is Gram's 99th Birthday and it doesn't seem right that you and Dad are not here. You both will always be in my heart. I guess you will be watching over me from above now. It does give me peace that you and Dad are together again. Luv and miss you Mom and Dad, always & forever!

Dear Priscilla and family,
I was saddened to learn of passing of your beloved sister Joan.
With knowing that we are all children of God, he has a plan for all of his children. Well, with saddness in her sudden passing, take comfort knowing at her call to eternal glory, she has now entered her new and enteral life as God has called her to be with hime again.
Death is no more, "heaven" is where your sister now lives, with her husband and our Lord, Jesus Christ.
Take comfort with this poem
"A limb has fallen"
A limb has fallen from the family tree.
I keep hearing a voice that says, "Grieve not for me.
Remember the best times, the laughter, the song.
The good life I lived while I was strong.
Continue my heritage, I'm counting on you.
Keep smiling and surely the sun will shine through.
My mind is at ease, my soul is at rest.
Remembering all, how I truly was blessed.
Continue traditions, no matter how small.
Go on with your life, don't worry about falls
I miss you all dearly, so keep up your chin.
Until the day comes we're together again.
With deepest sympathy
