Not sure what to say?

I still miss Derva sorely! I think of her so often! Your family was blessed to have her, and so many of the missionaries of "that time" were blessed to have her working in Home Missions. She MADE the program!!

Still miss you, Derva. I was just talking with another missionary yesterday. You are still making an impact!

A wonderful woman of God! Derva loved serving others and spent many hours of dedicated service to make sure materials were available to the blind when she herself was suffering severe physical limitations. The passing of a generation, but her legacy lives on in her children and grandchildren. God bless. Alice Northcutt

I loved Derva and was so sorry I was unable to attend her memorial service. I worked with her at the Center for the Blind for 10 years and so enjoyed her wit and her stories and her dedication to the Blind. She will certainly be missed.

We are so sorry for your loss. May God give you great peace & comfort.

Bless the Trower Family in this time of sadness.

Our deepest sympathy to the Trower family. We have fond memories of Derva & Guy. May comfort from our Heavenly Father fill your hearts & minds during this time. We can only imagine the glorious reunion she is having! Fred & Bonnie Lawley

LI'll miss Derva terribly. She was a powerhouse in Home Missions, a good friend who was always willing to open her home to anyone. My love and prayers to each of you in your loss.
