Paula DeJonge

Dear Alissa,

I knew you when you were a small child. Your parents and I belonged to a group called "Newcomers to Cromwell". We got together with 10 other couples. We would get together over each other's houses for fun, laughs and home cooked gourmet meals. We had fabulous times eating, laughing and enjoying each other's company.

Please know that you are thought of and that you are being remembered in my prayers.

Mrs.DeJonge was my first I as so sorry about you loss. She was my favorite teacher.I still remember the reading circle she alawys read Charlotte's Web. I also remember when you cam to the classroom to visit she will alwaya remain in our hearts.

Alissa,
I am so sorry about your loss.My daughter Vianna was in her class five years ago.She was a lovely woman,with such a gentle nature.I'm certain she was loved by many and will be missed.

To the Bacher Family and Paula's daughter Alyssa:

My sincere sympathy on your loss of mother, daughter and sister. You are all in my prayers that the Almighty will comfort you and give you peace during this most difficult time.

I hope you will remember me, an old friend from Watervliet.

Alissa,
St. John Church will not be the same without your mom,Paula. I had the honor of working with her during the Parish Building Fund Pledge solicitation. She was an inspiration to all and everyone admires her untiring work for the church auction which my family contributes to. We will surely miss her. My deepest sympathy to you and the rest of the family. May you find peace and strength during this very difficult time.

I love your mom! She was my teacher in first grade. She and i have the same birthday april 17 and we gave gifts to each other last year she gave be a glass purse with roses on it.she also was very loving to me she always gave me hugs and she knew when i needeed them. we both lost our brothers and she new i was sad sometimes. i liked seeing her in church i always gave her a hug. Today i went to the church to say goodby but i was smiling when i remembered the nice things.i hope someday i will...

Alissa,
I was very saddened from the news about your mother, she was by far one of my favorite teachers when I was going through school, and I feel blessed having known her. In fact, I think everyone who knew her feels this way, she has touched us all and left a great impression after all these years. My deepest condolences, you are in my thoughts.

Alissa: My thoughts are with you. Your Mom and Dad always spoke of you with such love and pride and they have much to be proud of.
Sincerely,
Roz Greenberg, Music Teacher with your Mom
