Valerie Meeker

Bonnie,
I was sorry to hear about the loss of your sister. It has been forever since I have seen you but I just wanted to let you know that my thoughts and prayers our with your family.

Sarah & Family

I wanted to express my sympathy for your loss, but there is really no way to do that. It takes everyone time and their own ways to get over something so traumatic. I just wanted to let you know that your mom was an amazing person and always so welcoming and grateful to see me around the house when we were growing up, until after we were all grown and away at college. She was always willing to answer the phone when we wanted to call Jazz at 3am as well.... god bless...

Dear Jim, Kristen, Sarah and Amy -



At the calling hours for your wife and mother, I introduced myself only as "the second person at Valerie's side" the day of her accident. I shared how I had tried to comfort her in those first few moments as I knelt beside her.

The reason for this entry, nearly a month later, is to let you know you are still in our thoughts and to relay our hope that you're coping and healing well - each in your own time and ways. To that end, you...

Jim Meeker and Family, Jim Simmons and Family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I grew up in Trumansburg and went to school with Valerie and Jim and have many fond memories. My sincerest sympathies and God bless you all.
Bill Dickson and Family

Dear Kim,Paul and all of Val's family,

Kim, I am so sorry for the loss of your sister Val. I had the unbelievable pleasure of knowing her and working with her many years ago. Her energy, professionalism, sweet, sweet smile, and love of the world around her made her an exceptional human being. Val was the one you always WANTED to call about information as she was always so willing to share everything she knew and had. We should all feel blessed and thankful for having known Val. Now,...

Aunt Marian and Family, My condolences go out to you for your loss. Valerie will be truly missed by all who knew her. I will always treasure my memories of her. Love Tina

I didn't know Valerie well in high school, even though Simmons and Springer were always in the same homeroom. Valerie has moved to a place where you can't see her, but she has her hand on your hearts. She'll always be with you.

Val was a bright light in the guidance department. I loved walking in there and just seeing her smile. What a sad thing to happen to someone so vibrant.

Jim & Family,
So very, very sorry to hear about your loss. We will pray for you from Pa.
