Dear Jane and Linda and all your family members:
Please except my condolences on the passing of your mother and also, belatedly, your father. As a kid growing up at St Matts, my experiences with both your parents was always pleasent and worthwhile. I trust your children and grandchildren are having the same experiences.

Thanks to those who have written very kind words about my Grandmother. I think we all agree, she was a wonderful woman. I get a lot of comfort from knowing that, in leaving her earthly body, she has finally gone to join Grandpa in heaven. I'm sure that a 16 year wait has been way too long for him.

May God comfort you in your loss.
Isabel has had her eye on her heavenly home for a long long time. As one of her pastors up until 2004, I enjoyed many visits with Isabel. I would go to visit hoping to be a blessing to her, and I do believe I was. However, I would leave feeling more blessed myself. To be in her presence and to experience her witness was truly a wonderful blessing. Isabel was very faithful to God and His church. She was always a delight to visit. She loved talking about her beloved family. She was always upbeat, grateful and content. Her memory will remain in my heart. God bless you with comfort, strength and peace.
Peace and joy,
Pastor Joyce M. Gulliford
