Nicholas, Jacqui, and family,

Our deepest sympathy for the loss of your mom. We were very saddened to hear the news. She was and continues to be in our prayers. We take faithful comfort knowing that both mom and dad are once again united in the most glorious place imaginable. We were privileged to have experienced their kindness and friendship. One of our favorite memories was the annual pancake/waffle breakfast at your home, and watching the Redavid family grow. God bless you all.

Dana is a strong, funny woman whom I really respected. I'm very sad to hear of her passing. I'm happy she's in a better place, but this world is a little less happy without her. I'm praying for your family Dana. ❤

I have many fond memories of Dana in SEAS choir and Jack working behind the scenes. Yes, we will be reunited with our spouses in the church triumphant. My prayers are with your family at this time of great loss. Rest In Peace, my sister in Christ.

Heart felt sympathy to Nick and Jacqui. Your mother was a very special woman. I had the privilege of working very closely with her for fourteen years and have missed those times since her retirement. I had to call her many times for help over the past two years. She truly cared about the school and worked beyond expectations to make it a great place for kids. She was dedicated to doing it well and right. Beyond that she was an extremely caring person. We spoke often of you and she cared for nothing more than her children and grandchildren. She felt your losses and celebrated your successes. A great worker, a wonderful mother, super grandmother and to many of us a dependable friend. To my friend Dana, I will remember you always and miss you greatly.

Dear Jacqui and Nicholas,

You and your families are in my prayers. Dana and I met years ago when we both were part of the SEAS choir. A few years later I began working at Wilson and we worked together there for well over a decade. Your mom was a rare person, she had a meticulous work ethic and held all of us to those standards as well. We will miss her spirit but knowing that she is with her beloved "Jack" makes our heavy hearts a little lighter because she longed to be with him again. God bless her always and all she loved.
