Joe, Shelia and Bernard, words cannot express how you must be feeling. I just found out about your mother's passing. Your mother was such a lovely person, a loving and caring person. She had the sweetest smile and shared that smile with everyone she met. I have such fond memories of your mother and each of you during our times together. Although those times were long ago, you all have remained in my heart. Be blessed and know that God is all seeing and all hearing and he knows what you are going through. Continue to look to him for strength and comfort.

Kevin and I are so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. She was a very dear person and a true friend to our mother/granny, Doris. Take comfort in knowing that she is free from her suffering and ill health in this world. God bless you and your family in this very difficult time and know that you are in our hearts and minds.

Love, Donna and Kevin

TO MY STEP-FAMILY:
I was sadden about Glady's death. The memories of her were very good. May you find peace in knowing, that God's plan is best and may God continue to bless each of you. I was unable to attend her memorial service, due to another engagement , but my prayers and thoughts are with you. I was glad to see my stepsisters,(mary&Helen) last week.It was a quick hello, but knowing that weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the morning.

Love,
