To the family of Iris Frederick, so sorry for your loss. May God's promise found in John 6:40, of the hope to see our loved ones again, comfort your heart and give you peace, strength, and hope in the days ahead.

I first met Ann at Northland Terrance as I was a fairly new nurse and to the city. She met me with open arms and a smile always. Soon realized we both attended St. Anthony's Church and her family knew my husbands family. She always found the good in people and that also made her a good nurse and mentor to us young nurses. May God wrap his arms around you all and keep your memories of her alive. She is smiling down on you.

To the family and friends, my heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in 1 Thessalonians 4:14 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring. And may your precious memories of your dear loved one fill your heart with love and comfort today, tomorrow and always.

I always loved talking to Ann. She was a delightful person, who loved the Lord, her husband and family. I will greatly miss her sweet smile and our talks together. My prayers are with Mark, Chris and family.
