I'm so sorry I missed your mother passing after you were so nice to call me. I thought I had checked the obits better than that. So sorry for your loss. I certainly would have loved to seen you "kids."

Dear family of Jane,
Your mom and my mom met at a retreat years ago (they were room mates). Time went by and I'm not sure if they kept in touch at all but when my mom moved into an apt. on the 8th floor the Lord had other plans for them.... to reunite. One day my mom ran into your mom in the apt. building and here they discovered each other after all those years gone by and they both were living on the same floor of the apt. Your mom was a dear friend to my mother from then on. I'm praying for you all that you would feel the love and comfort of our Savior Jesus Christ.

Even though I never got to meet her, I have heard nothing but great things. We are friends with Deanne and her children. You were blessing to your family and will be truly missed. Your love and warmth will last a lifetime to those that had the honor to have known you. May God welcome you with open arms as you watch over those you love from above.
Rest in Peace
