To Mike and Family,
I offer my sincerest condolences to you. Oretha and I worked together at SRMC. She was really laid back, funny, and had a great spirit. She loved talking about her sons and grandchildren. She will truly be missed.

To Mike & Family,
I was so shocked and sad to hear of Oretha (Jean) passing. I am remembering the last time I was in her company at our class reunion and the fun we had laughing and joking at our table. I am so sure the God has welcomed her into his arms and she is at rest. It can be so hard to face the new year without your loved one, but the love of family and friends can carry you through. May God continue to Bless and Heal You.

Mike and sons,
Retha's passing from this earthly life into Eternal Life is glorious. Yet I thought we'd have a little more time to share her here on this side of Glory! The load is so heavy right now, but the Word promises that The Comforter will help us. Oretha absolutely believed in Him. Take Comfort in that knowledge. We miss her but we shall see her again.
