MARTHA L. MATTHYS

I was very sorry to hear of your loss. The thoughts of many are with you at this time.

Jim, Richard, Francis, and families. I am sorry I am not able to be at Martha's funeral. Her passing has stirred many fond memories of our times in the "old neighborhood". Wonderfully strict parents made growing up there a great experience. Ironic that Martha and Alice should end up as neighbors right to the end. I suspect they will both be so again some day. Martha's place in the beyond would seem to be secure.I will keep you all in my thoughts.

Richard and family, You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your mother. You so graciously allowed me to come into her home for many months to help Maria with the English language. I will always remember that wonderful smile of your mom's that greeted me when I came in and the times that she sat at the table and listened to our lesson. I am in contact with Maria and will tell her about the passing of your mother. Take care, Elaine

Matt, you and your family are in our prayers over the lost of your mom. As you mentioned yesterday, she is now in her eternal home sitting at Jesus' feet.
