Mr. Setlin and family, I have admired you both for the my past 20 years at St. Patrick. I sat in the balcony with Mark at your Mrs. Setlin's funeral Mass on Tuesday. You are all in my prayers for renewed peace and a reminder that "Christ is Risen" and has made that promise to us all! Steve Wilson

Pearson, fondly known to me as "Aunt Pan" since I was very young, was one of the most beautiful and elegant women I have ever known. Aunt Pan always looked like she walked out of a magazine, whether sporting a tennis skirt or an evening gown. So many fond childhood memories with Aunt Pan, Uncle Howard, Corby, Kelly and the Van Dynes, from fishing and fish fries to birthday parties and sleepovers, cotillion, ballet classes, the Bath Club, football games, dinners, Open Houses, Halloween -- more than I could ever mention. Seeing everyone at the visitation this evening was a testimony to a lovely lady and a wonderful family, with many dear friends and family members spanning the decades and generations. You will be missed, Aunt Pan, and you will always be remembered with love and affection.

My sympathies to Uncle Howard, Aunt Mere, Kelly and Corby. Aunt Pan was a wonderful person and I have very fond memories of her and all of you. You all are in our prayers.

We are very sorry for your loss. At times of hardship, the common advice you may hear is simply "move on." But move on to where? We can find comfort in the Lord's prayer in Matthew 6:10 - "Let your kingdom come." This Kingdom is real, and it brings comfort when we understand the blessings it will bring.
