Dear Inez,

Please wrap your newly acquired wings around your little angel Paula and help her through these difficult times. I know you will find a way to assure her of your newfound comfort and peace in heaven. "I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in Me, even if he dies, will live. Everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die--ever.” John; 11:25

Peace be with you,
Robert Dean Stinnett a.k.a - Bobber

Dear Uncle Tommy,

May you find solace in the loss of Aunt Inez Mae by the support and love shown by family and friends.

I find it an absolute privilege that I was able to see both of you at Nancy's home where we enjoyed a wonderful lunch and pleasant conversation. It was so perfectly timed that, I believe, happened in God's time and presence.

I guess we are never ready to lose someone of Aunt Inez Mae's significance and we never will be.

It was into the Glorious arms of Heaven that Aunt Inez so deservingly entered in. It was into this Heaven that she so meticulously prepared for her family in her wonderful life filled with compassion and certainly with the love-laced consideration for everyone.

Aunt Inez Mae; A wonderful woman with virtues that will live on in the hearts of the Ronan and Wilson families and, most certainly,in all that were privileged to have known her.

God Bless you.

Love always,
Frances Ann McMahon

Kathy and Mike

Even when are parents have lived a long, full life it still seems difficult when the day does come for them to pass on. It is obvious your mother was a very loving and giving person. I know you must be proud in your sadness and grieving. Please know Mary Ann and I are praying for you all of you.
