Brother George,
Please accept my sincere thoughts and prayers for your loss. It is with all my heart that I share your pain. As a fellow fireman, used to giving support and counsel, it is never easy to receive the same. You know the bonds of brotherhood are endless and so are the prayers for you and your family. Anita is in a better place now, and has no pain. God Bless you, and know all the chaplains are praying for you.

Anita and I sweated in classes at the Petaluma Valley Athletic Club. She always was in the corner. A great woman and friend as she and my husband sat with Anita and George at the PVAC club events. I am very saddened by her passing. Big hugs to her family and her husband.

I am so sad that you left us, Auntie! You will be missed. Thank goodness for the wonderful memories we have to remember you by! The trips to Norstar, sleepovers, taking us to the theater with Grandma, and so much more. Thank you for being a part of our lives! I see you everyday in our curley redheaded Gracie. I'm so grateful for a reminder of you! You will be missed, I love you.. Erica

If Tears Could Build A Stairway
If tears could build a stairway
and thoughts a memory lane
I’d walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again
No Farewell words were spoken
No time to say good-bye
You were gone before I knew it
And only God knows why.
My heart’s still active in sadness
And secret tears still flow
What it meant to lose you
No one can ever know.
But now I know you want us
To mourn for you no more
To remember all the happy times
Life still has much in store.
Since you’ll never be forgotten
I pledge to you today
A hallowed place within my heart
Is where you’ll always stay.
God knows why, with chilling touch,
Death gathers those we love so much,
And what now seems so strange and dim,
Will all be clear, when we meet Him.
I Knew you for a Moment.
You will be missed so very much!
I Love You Sis,
Marie Vedder
