My heart goes out to all of you. Mom is now dad and they can be together again and smile as they watch over all of you. I can still see her in the kitchen trying to get supper on the table and everthing on the stove is on high. Just remmber when you see a butterfly it's mom saying hello. My love to all Sandy

Although we never met - I know you were a wonderful lady because of the loving way your children spoke of you. We know you are now safe in the loving arms of our Saviour Jesus Christ.

Our condolences to all the Bortle Family, especially to Lucy's children that we knew, Ed, Lee, Nancy & Ruth..... I know you are all looking forward to that wonderful day when you will see her again. Until then, may you all be comforted by the fact she is now happily enjoying the presense of our dear Lord Jesus.
