Not sure what to say?

Bob, Cheryl and Tami, Al and I are so sorry to hear about your mom´s passing. We just heard today from Arlene Kendzy. Your mom was one of the kindest most loving people we have ever known. She is in the living arms of Our Lord. Barb and Al Paschke

Dear Florence,

It's hard for me to write these words, because the way I feel about you, after all, belongs only to you and me...
So everyone can know that I loved you and I still love you.
It was simply a pure, good feeling to be with you.
It didn't bother me that we didn't always understand each other's words - according to the rules of the English language.

Flo and Pastor were serving Immanuel Lutheran Church in Batavia, Illinois when my family became new members. They both made our family feel welcome and part of Immanuel's family. I remember Flo smiling, singing and occasionally scolding us children; but always with love and hugs. I have so many wonderful memories of Flo at church, at home, at family gatherings and I will miss her dearly. Sending prayers of thankfulness that God brought the Bunnett's into our lives and prayers of sympathy. ...
