Not sure what to say?

I did not know your loved one at all. I just lost my husband on 11/12/13 and was looking through some of the sites. His names was Dennis F. Dear, Sr. I miss him so bad I think my own heart will explode like his did. I find him in the yard. Something in your memorial gave me a little peace to go on with my first Christmas and yours have been even worst. I will pray for you to celebrate Christmas as your beautiful loved one celebrated Christ every day, not just on His birthday.

Joan was a wonderful, caring woman, a person of humility, patience,dignity, and dedication to family. She touched many lives and will be deeply missed. I hope, after a period of grieving, you all will be sustained by the warm, happy memories of your beautiful wife/mother.
Sincerely,
Kris

"In suffering we are tempted to lose hope and faith in the Lord's love and in his desire for our eternal life with Him. But that same suffering can teach us, if we let it, to turn to God and place our hope and trust in Him."

Dear Pat, My deepest sympathy for your loss. I have a lot of found memories of times well spent. I am already in Florida and I am sorry I cannot be there to celebrate Joans life with you. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Our hearts go out to you, Pat, and your family. I had so hoped you would have this Christmas together but the Lord had other plans. May it be a comfort to know that for Joan, all the pain and struggles of this life are over and that after a time of mourning, we pray it will be just all the wonderful memories that will come to mind for you and your family. I especially feel priviledged to have known Joan and honored to have played whatever small part I could as part of her health care team....

my condolences to you Pat and your family,joan was such a sweet and caring person, may God help you in your sorrow.

Patrick and Family, My thoughts and prayers are with you. Take comfort in knowing that she will continue to live on in the hearts and smiles of all those she touched. God Speed her home.
