Sister Leonore Hearne

Although only 85 lbs., you were the strongest person I know. By your living example, you taught me leadership, humility, generosity and mercy. Aunt Nancy, I'm going to miss you so much, but in my mind's eye I see how happy you are at the "Hearne/Meredith" family reunion with your parents, your 8 handsome brothers and your dear sisters, Bess and Alice; and that gives me peace and joy. Until we meet again, I love you with all my heart, my dear Aunt.

I thank God for giving me such a beautiful aunt. Because of her life, I have been touched by an angel. I rejoice that she is now in heaven and at perfect peace.

What an inspirition you were to all of us with your quiet devotion, humility, brilliant mind and wonderful sense of humor. Your love and light lives on, and will grow and spread from you through us to the generations to follow. Jeanine,Ernie, Steven, Trevor, Jeff

Dear Aunt Nancy,
These are the things I will always remember about you: your laugh and great sense of humor even when you were sick, you're my dad's older sister, the stories about the family you would tell, that whenever there was traffic you prayed it away, you remember the little things, that you like mince meat pie at Thanksgiving, the beautiful afghans you made, that I could send you my prayer intentions and they were always answered, your interest in my stories, your pride in your...

Dear Sister Leonore,

For the past 50 years I enjoyed your friendship. You always kept in touch, and found me, wherever I was at. My only regret is not being able to talk you into using eMail!!
You are now in God’s hands, and will always remain in my heart and mind…
Much love (I will miss you!)

Condolences and prayers go out to the entire family. May Sister rest in peace.

Dear Aunt Nancy,
I'm sure you made it quickly and safely to heaven. You will be greatly missed but always remembered. Thank you for sharing all your stories-both good and bad-with us! Until we meet again, Ellen, Peter, Joseph, Gigs, and Deirdre
