Riley and Miranda,
We were lucky to have met your mom as she was the foster to Jazz.
As she recently shared Honeycrisp was Miranda´s favorite and Jazz was your mom´s favorite.
She gave us and other families a wonderful gift of a dog to add to our family. Below are pics of the pups and they turned 1 on March 7.
Your mother loved you both very much. When she talk of you she would get a sparkle in her eye.
She was also very proud of who both of you grew up to be.
I so very sorry of your loss. I hope happy memories and being with family get you through these difficult days. Sending prayers and hugs.

I´m so incredibly sorry to hear of your loss. Heather was my sister Lisa´s dear, dear lifelong friend and she was someone that I really looked up to when I was young. She was so beautiful inside and out. I remember her being fun, smart and so talented. My most sincere thoughts and many prayers are with you.

Dear Riley, Miranda and the Allen family,

I was saddened to hear of the passing of your mom, daughter and sister. I was fortunate to know your mom when I served at Pius XI High School. Heather was a gentle soul and respected and loved by many. As her children and family member, you are blessed to have her in your life.

I hope your faith nudges you to believe that your mom´s "life is simply changed not ended." I hope too, that gives you some solace with the pain you hold with your loss. I hold you in prayer the days ahead.

In the Risen Christ,
Fr.Marvin T Knighton
