Thoughts and prayers to the family.
Jerry and family we are so sorry to hear about your Mama.
Sending many prayers and hugs to all of you.
Such a lovely picture of your mother. Such an accomplished lady. You were blessed with a wonderful mother. Our condolences.
I’m so sorry for your loss Joyce. Please embrace my thoughts and prayers during this time.
I am so very sorry to hear of your Mother’s passing. She was such a wonderful lady. I wish we were able to join you to celebrate her life . Unfortunately we will be out of the state. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time.
To Judy’s family, my sympathy as you grieve her loss. We worked together at Ravenwood and spent many years as friends outside of work. The years had put miles between us but her memory never left.
Thoughts and prayers to all friends & family of Judy’s. So sorry 😢 for your loss.
For a number of years, we had the pleasure of bringing communion to Judy once a month. She was a faith-filled person with a great attitude and sense of humor. We will miss her.
I had the honor of bringing the host to Judy every Wednesday. She was such a pleasure to get to know. She loved her flowers (even the artificial ones), and was a deep thinker. She was always looking for a way to deepen her faith. It was so much fun seeing her knitting projects and hearing about the next novel or family outing. I would have liked to be at her funeral mass, but sadly I was out of the country when she entered into eternal life. I’m sure she’s keeping those in Heaven busy now.
