I would like to offer my deepest sympathies to you. I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that you are never alone. Turn to the Holy Scriptures for guidance and to help soothe your heart. Psalms 34:18 assures us that God is near to those broken at heart and crushed in spirit. Please accept my deepest sympathies.

Russ, Brad, Doug and Bob: I am so sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. She was a good friend to my Mother over the years. I am so glad they kept in contact with one another. I know this is a difficult time for all of you, please know I am sending my thoughts and prayers to all of you boys and your extended families. You will always have your memories of what a good person and Mother she was and that will put a smile on your face when you are feeling sad and missing her. She is now your Angel watching over you.

Pinegar Boys & Families: I'm so sorry for your loss. Finding the right words during such difficult times has always been challenging for me, so I hope you take comfort in one of my favorite quotes...."What we have once enjoyed, we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes part of us." ~Helen Keller~

Marge was a great friend, had lots of good time together. Just remember When the Lord calls our loved ones home, he leave a gift of memories in exchange.

Doug and Cathy, we are so sorry for your loss. She played bridge at the Pleasant Hill Library with our group on Tuesdays and she was a delightful lady. We missed her smile when she could no longer play. Our prayers are with you and your family. Dave and Sharon
