I was saddened to hear of Val's passing. She was a great friend to me and my mom. I loved her like a sister and enjoyed working with her at Lamb's and what fun we had outside of work. Val will always hold a special place in my heart. I'm sorry we lost contact. Fly free Val in that Mustang you loved. Doreen

I did not know Valerie personally, but I hear she was a beautiful person. There are no words to ease your grief, and I know you will miss her. She will always be with you in your heart. I believe she is in a most wondrous place, full of peace and joy with the Lord. She will be waiting for you with open arms when your time comes to reunite with her. Take comfort in the time that you did have to share love with each other, even though that time was so brief. God Bless you and your family.

Wyatt and family,
I am a friend of your Mom...
I am deeply saddened by your loss and would like to offer my heartfelt condolences to you and your family.
The loss of a loved one leaves a heartache that no one can heal, and no words can adequately express. Just know that you can take some comfort in your memories however, as they can become your greatest treasures.
When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure, a keepsake of time that lives forever in the heart....
May your treasured memories bring you comfort through this time of sorrow.
With Sympathy,

Although I did not know your beautiful wife Val, my heart goes out to to her. Janice, your Mom, (my friend) has told me what a brave and wonderful wife and mother she was. She will always be in your heart and watching over you all. Please know that a lot of your Mom's friends feel so sad that she was taken so young. Please take care and my God help you through this difficult time.

Wyatt and family, what a devastating time you are going through...everything around you reminds you of the loved one now longer in this life in precious companionship with the shared memory bank of experiences together. I'm a friend of your Mom's and wanted to share that it really feels unreal--and bereft!--in the beginning, from my experience anyway. Feel free to be very honest with your feelings; God does not expect you to keep the 'stiff upper lip' posture. David was brutally honest with God in the Psalms, and we too can be honest with Him and ask Him to help us in our lives. Bill and I have found it is true that He 'is a present help in time of trouble'...those are not just words on a page. You're in our thoughts and prayers morning and night...God bless and encourage you!

To Janet and Family...thoughts are with you during this difficult time. I pray that with time, you'll be able to feel peace in your hearts and gratitude that you all had your beloved Valerie in your lives, short though the time. May memories at some point, bring about a smile even if a tear does come as well.
