Not sure what to say?

Raymond, we are so glad we spent time with you and Arnetta in August. Her hugs will be with us for a long, long time. This reminded us of Arnetta: "What you leave behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments, but what is woven into the lives of others." Pericles...attributed).

Wow, what a great legacy she left. Of course she fought the good fight; God was always top priority for your family and you all set a great example. Even after more than 20 years, she still looks ageless and well bestowed with wisdom and love. I'm sorry, yet joyful, for we know she is with our Lord. Most sincerely

Ray and Ray Ray (your Mom said I could always call you Ray Ray) We just heard about Arnetta. We have been away. We are so sorry. She was such a lady and always fun to be around. We know you are going to miss her. Again we are so sorry.

I am sorry to hear about Mrs. Washington's passing. She was a lady who was always smiling and who made all feel better when around her. Even though this is a great loss here on earth, at least you know that she will live in eternal peace.

Dear Raymond, Ray Ray and family,
We were saddened to hear of the death of Arnetta. We will always cherish the fond memories of our families' relationship and those special times which started from the days of Y.H. Thomas and on. May God continue to strengthen you as you recall the precious memories of your lives together.

Dear Raymond and family,
Arnetta brightened many days for me when we worked together at Y.H. Thomas. I'll remember her for her positive attitude, her sense of humor, her enthusiasm for life, and that smile. I pray that God will give you strength and peace in the days and weeks ahead.
