Not sure what to say?

My deepest condolences to the Popkin family, I know losing a mother is not an easy thing, but the comfort is knowing she is in the hands of our Lord Jesus Christ. Artist was a very wonderful lady and I always enjoyed visiting with her as we were doing her hair. God bless you all.

so sorry to hear about your moms passing .

Dear Pete and family: Ardis was very special to me and Neil. She and I were born a day apart in the same year so celebrated many birthdays together at Winter Haven with the bridge players. We still kept in touch after I left WH in 2021 and phoned each other every other Monday until her recent illness. She was such a bright light with a great sense of humor. I will miss her terribly. My condolences to you and your precious, close family. Carol Pontious

I hope in the days ahead, her clever words and warm spirit come back to you and make you smile even through the tears. She was a gift beyond measure. Hold onto that! With all my love and deepest sympathy, Michele...
