Not sure what to say?





My thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family of Miriam Meyer. I was a friend of hers in the Village of Fallen Timbers. Miriam was a pistol to the end. Loved her Village Community.

Peggy, sorry I did not get to see you in person to express my sympathy to you in the loss of your mother. Will always remember the good time we had at orientation at Ohio State. Got to visit with your mom a few times at Towne Club. She was a great lady.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family

Bruce and Karen, We were touched by Bruce's sharing today during "God Sighting" time in church about her opening her eyes right before she left you. I'm sure she wanted to see her family "one more time" before she went up to be united with Jesus and your dad. May your memories of her bring you smiles and thoughts of love, and may God bless you with His comfort and peace.

Mimi,
Your mom surely was as her obituary describes..."beautiful, fun, feisty and strong" indeed!
Bittersweet...is the letting go and saying goodbye while also rejoicing in her forever LIFE with CHRIST!

Love from your sister in Christ,
Amanda
(and from all the boys, too!)
