To all her Children,

Sorry to hear about your mother but hold on the all those wonderful memories that you all have made. Your mom and dad was such a blessing to Branch's and especially to me for she was my Mentor and I sure admired her. She would put her arms around me and just smile. You all had a good family. She's at wonderful peace and no more suffering. She has reached where we all want to be. Im praying for you. Love, Marie Hines

As you celebrate the wonderful life your mother lived and her homecoming, may God's love and strength support you during this time. Both our mothers' longevity was a real blessing.

Remembering Ene brings a lifetime of love, joys and tears. Each child gets to have a special person in their life if they are lucky, and I had Ene. She was a second mother to me. I honored her, loved her and respected her. Her life and values meant so much to me. Remembering her life, I know that each of you lived in her love and devotion. Your lives exemplify how her love lives on. She valued her God, her family and community and I know you continue these values. I wish I could be there with you during this time, but our prayer and thoughts are with you.
Remembering,

Please accept my deepest sympathy. Pam and I just lost our mother in December, so we know what you are going through. I can remember going to your parents house and mother buying eggs and your mom would give me some eggs the size of peanut M &M's. I would take them home and make mud pies!
Please know that your family will be in my thoughts and prayers at this difficult time.
