Sally:

You have my heart felt sympathy as I just lost my Mother in October of 2010 and then my daughter in December of 2010. The hardest part is getting beyond that first year and then missing their presence in your life. Your mother was such a wonderful, caring, giving woman and I most remember her when she was our Girl Scout Troop Leader with Marge Grace (those were carefree days). Hope you find comfort within the arms of your family and friends to carry you through this difficult period in your life.

Dear Family: I always thank God for let me had that wonderfull mother. Peace in her grave.

Dear Family of Marion,
How well I remember Marion when she came to St.Mary's Home East to volunteer. She was always full of life. I remember that Sis Jenkins and another volunteer came with her. That was in the 80's when I worked in the Activity Dept. What wonderful volunteers we had and what fun we had! From her obit. I noticed that Marion was involved in many "caring" activities. I am sure that God met her with "Well done,good and faithful servant."
May God's peace and strength be yours in the days ahead.
My prayers, S. Betty Ruza SSJ
