Not sure what to say?

I am deeply sorry for your loss. May the family find strength and comfort from God and his inspiring promise found at Hosea 13:14.

Dear Olivia and Judy,
I want to offer my heartfelt condolences to both of you and your families. I had the pleasure of meeting several times with your mother during the time y'all were at Richmond Academy. She was always so nice and pleasant as she stayed active in your lives and best interests. It was very evident she loved y'all so very much.
I am so sorry for your loss.

I worked with Lanelle for many years at. VAMC. She was a great friend,always ready to help,and a wonderful nurse. She would put patients and staff first. So glad she is not suffering any more.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. And will be praying for you in the difficult days ahead.

I share the void that her family must feel just now, but my prayer is that our Heavenly Father will soon fill that void with wonderful memories.
I worked with her husband, Jim Baxter, in the pharmacy at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center until his retirement, and Lanelle was a dear registered nurse there.
Both were such genuine and gracious co-workers. I loved them both and cherish such fond memories of them.
May our Lord richly bless their daughters and their families.

A beautiful friend who lived and loved to the fullest and now she rests. My sincere sympathy to her family.
