Not sure what to say?

Eddie and Julie,

We were saddened to learn of your mother's passing today. She was one of those special people that you are blessed with in life, and anyone who knew her, felt that blessing. She was a mother who was so dedicated to her family. May God comfort you.

So sorry to hear of Thelma's passing. I will always remember how she loved her flowers every spring and summer with some flower blooming all the time. Her family was very important to her . Thoughts and prayers are with the family and friends during this sad time.

Eddie, Julie and all, What I know is what good care you took of Aunt Thelma. She was able to stay in her own home with all your help, until she couldn't. She had a long life and enjoyed her family . So glad for all the beautiful memories I have of her. And there is no doubt that she loved you and your Dad with all her heart. There will be a great reunion one of these days. Be comforted, you were the best family.
