Christine,
It was such an extreme pleasure to know and visit with your Mom and Emma at the Menchaca House. I will always cherish these memories of both precious ladies. They are together again in heaven. Love, Susan Beavin

I am so sorry I didn't know about Nora's passing until today! Please accept my condolences. I would have gone to her service last week had I known.

Your mom was a great lady Christine. She lived more than a full life, she lived in God's plan. What a tremendous example she was to us all. Always caring for others and practicing her top priority in following God's way. There are not enough saints left in the world with the passing of Nora to Heaven.

Christine, I'm so sorry for your loss. There's no way to express in words the void your Mothers passing will leave. Only time will make it easier. It'll be 1yr. on Jan 31 since my Mom passed. Prayers are with you and your family.
