Not sure what to say?

Rebecca and family, I remember your mom from over 30 years ago as a generous, loving, bright, witty person and was sad to hear from my mom of her passing. I imagine she was still going strong until her illness. May this enduring spirit of her's be of comfort to you as you miss her. Blessings

Dear John and Family: We were very privileged to know Ali. She let her Light shine wherever she went. Our world is a better place for her being here - we will all miss her.

Mr. Knoppers,
I just wanted you to know how much my mom thought of Ali. You were such good friends to both my mom and my dad (Ben and Ev Kleinjans) before he died. My mom will miss her very much and I just want to thank you for all you did for them. You are truly wonderful people. I will be praying for you during this hard time.

Connie (Kleinjans) & Joe Warren

You have our deepest sympathies. We couldn't have asked for better neighbors. She was the sweetest lady and always showed love to our girls when we were outside. We're so sorry for your loss.

Ali will always be remembered as a loving, kind, giving and active servant of the Lord to all of His people. Her gentle smile and soft spoken voice and sparkling eyes showed her love to everyone who knew her. She will be missed greatly!

Dear Knoppers family,
I was shocked and sad to read Ali's notice in the paper. Seems like yesterday we were attending kids' activities at Christian High together; seems like the day before yesterday we were at Trinity Chapel in Broomall, where John and Ali were such good friends with my folks. Sympathies and blessings.

Jane, Rebecca, and families. You are in our prayers. We know you know your mom is at peace, and experiencing the full glory of being with the Lord, but now comes the new normal of life here without someone very precious to you. We pray God's peace and wonderful recollections of times with your mom.

Remembering you in prayer.
