My sincerest condolences on your loss. I remember you mother's sense of humor and grace well. I still remember when she surprised Nathan at a high school assembly and we all laughed and she grinned from ear to ear from the joke that she had played on him.

To Alice's Family,
I was so sorry to hear of Alice's passing. I worked with Alice many, many years ago at Younkers. She was such a sweet and kind person with a great sense of humor. Even after leaving Younkers, I would stop in to see her. I was blessed to have known her. May your many wonderful memories help to comfort you. You're in my thoughts and prayers.

To all my little cousins, I so sorry for our loss. From the time that I came to know Aunt Helen, she was always so sweet and special. I first met you all when you were small children, and I was so happy to get to know and love you all. Auntie and her brother (Uncle Charles, my Dad) are resting with Jesus looking out for us all. Remember how much she loved her family. Cousin Eunice..

I am truly sadden to her about Aunt Helen passing, when the loss of a family member happens it affects you no matter how far apart we live from each other, the love of family is eternal, we know that savior will reunite us one day in heaven because that is his promise. Jeremiah 29:11-13.
