Not sure what to say?

Jeff, Josh, Nate, Joy, Sarah, my second family. It was such a joy to come into your lives last winter when we took our horses to Sunset. I really got to know Raberta and she became a second mom to me. I could talk to her about anything that was on my mind. She had an amazing relationship with God and she helped me find my way on my path with Christ where I was having some hard times. I got to know Sarah and Joy they are truly the most amazing girls I know. Sarah is like my best friend/little...

I first met Roberta as a crossing guard near our house, and discovered she was a fellow believer in our Lord Jesus Christ. Later she did a wonderful job teaching our children oil painting. We enjoyed sharing our thoughts of the Lord together, and she comforted me when our son went Home to be with the Lord. Now she is face to face "with Christ, which is far better," "abundantly satisfied with the fatness of [His] house," and reunited with her wee children.

We are praying for you...

Jeff and family,

I (Carol) remember Roberta well from our conversations at Chris W's house during various meetings. What a sweet sister in the Lord she was! We enjoyed talking about Massachusetts, as I had lived there for a time in my youth. I know you will miss her, but your comfort is in knowing you will see her again. May the Lord comfort you as only He can.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Roberta was a very loving person. She will be greatly missed, but she will live in our hearts forever. God Bless You.

Dear Jeff, Josh, Nathan, Joy and Sarah,

Words cannot express our feelings of sympathy for your loss. I still remember meeting Roberta as one of Jessica's first teachers. She welcomed our whole family into hers. She was one of those remarkable people who weeks and months could go by without speaking to one another and you could pick up your conversation as if no time was lost. Her faith in God was truly inspiring. All our love and God's grace at this trying time. All I can...

Dear Jeff, Joshua, Nathan, Joy and Sarah,
There is a saying that will always remind me of Bobbie;
The toil of earth will soon be past; only what's done for Christ will last...
She was the most loving, faithful believer in Yeshua, Our Savior and Lord...she was a light shining in the darkness and the light of her memory will never be darkend. My most heartfelt condolences and prayers for each of you at this time. I first met you at Gateway Worship Center and I spent time with...

Dear Jeff, Josh, Joy, Nathan and Sarah,
We want you all to know that you have been and will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
