Dear Georgeann & Mary Catherine
Although we talked on Sunday, I would like to send our condolences on the loss of your dear Mother.

I am so glad you both were able to be together at such a difficult time. It certainly was "Divine Intervention"! Sisters really need each other at such times. As I told you in our conversations, I can relate as to how difficult it is for the one who is miles away.

I truly would have loved to attend the service and also to visit with everyone at Aunt Kathryn's new place. Lois tells me everything was lovely.

I have a funny memory of your Mom & Dad's wedding day at St Martins Catholic Church. Our cousin, Jack Hild was sitting next to me. I was wearing a new Christmas dress. He handed me a chocolate candy. Thinking it was a hard piece of chocolate, I bit into it, and surprise - out poured a gooey cherry filling all down my pretty dress!

Oh boy! Silly thing to remember but I do!

I send our blessings and prayers to you both.

Love,
Sis & Joe

Dear Georgeann & Mary Catherine, We were so sorry to hear about your Mother. We haven't seen her in recent years, but I still have memories that go back to when your Mother and Father were dating. We have been out of town for years, but have managed to stay in close touch with family. We even saw your parents when they came to Denver on business one time. We're sorry we couldn't be there for the services and a final goodbye, but we were there in thoughts and prayers. God Bless you both. Love, Dolores and Bob

Hi Girls,
We're thinking of you and glad that we can be with you for the day in celebrating your Mom's life. We've lost so many in our family, and each time that it happens,all the memories come back and are somehow centered around Mom Heidecker's kitchen table. There were also alot of times when your parents were at our house and the fun began! It's amazing to see that Mother is the last one standing. Who woulda thought? I can only imagine that Daddy is up there shaking his head and wondering what's going on! I truly believe that we'll all be together again, and what a reunion that will be! Stay close with one another. That's very important, and physical distance doesn't matter at all. We love you, Carole and Eddie

Dear Georgeann and Mary Catherine, my heart goes out to you this evening. Although tomorrow will be difficult, saying good-bye always is, it is a blessing to know that your mother is resting safely in the hands of our Heavenly Father. We cherish the memories we have of times spent with her. Hang on to your special memories too. They are sunshine on a cloudy day. We send our love to you and pray for your peace in knowing you will see your mother again one day. Love, Lois and Roger
