Mattie was a wonderful friend, onetime co-worker and sister in the Lord. I miss her and think of her often, her wonderful smile and laugh. Mattie loved her children and grandchildren and her beautiful sister, Pat and now her Michael is with her. She was also an up beat person who loved Jesus with all her heart. I know I will see her again

Dearest Michael, Sheryle, Pat & Family, so saddened to hear the news about Sis. Mattie. She was a true woman of God, and I know you are comforted knowing where she is. I experienced the same sadness and comfort when we lost my Mom, Lorraine Cyr. Another angel has gone home to glory ?? Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time ??

George and I send our deepest sympathy to all of Sister Mattie's family. To Michael & Beatrice, Sheryle, Sister Pat, Betty, grand-children, great-grands, nieces and nephews, we are so sorry for your lost. Mattie and I (Sis Jo) got baptized on the same day. We used to joke that we were spiritual twins. We will miss her greatly but we also know that she is resting in the arms of Jesus. Love you all and will be praying for you. Brother George and Sister JoAnn Brooks
