I feel very fortunate to be living in the house Mrs. Culver had built in 2000. We like to call her "Jennie"--we feel like she is a long-time friend, the house seems so personal. We are honored to live in the home she designed and thank her every day.

Dear Culver Family, Mrs Culver was a dear friend to our family (Metzgers) and her presence will be greatly missed. A few years ago I sat next to her at a Saturday night service at Church of the Redeemer. I had, at the time a knitting bag and she asked to see the project I was working on. I asked her if she knew how to knit and her reply was, "Honey, I've done it all." Mrs. Culver could always bring me to laugh. She is a light that this world will greatly miss. May God's presence comfort you and give you peace.

To all the Culver family, from all the Hurley family-Our families have been close since the early days, in Williamsburg Village. Your Mother will be especially missed by her devoted friend, Mary, my Mother. Mrs. Culver, as we always will call her, was a wonderful example of conviction, hard work, and devotion to her family and friends. Even at 89, her days, here, were too short, for all those who loved her.

"Aunt Jenny" fiercely loved and was loved by her adopted Meenehan family. Her light and strength served as a beacon for my mother and her faith lit the path for many. I shall miss her physical presence here, but I know I have a fresh angel to hear my prayers. Blessings to the entire Culver family, so much like our brothers and sisters, in this time.

Aunt Jenny was a positive and spiritual force in our lives. We were family even though nature didn't make us.
