Dear Stan, Cindy and Joshua,
We just heard of Hannah's Home going. We were away and missed the news. We are so sorry for your loss and know that there is an empty space in your lives right now. You all took care of Hannah in a loving and Christ-like way...A huge testament of faith and family love to us. It was a priviledge to know Hannah and pray for her. Her time here was short but so much came from her life. She was God's gift to your family and to all who knew her or cared for her. We will be praying for your family and try to imagine what it is like for Hannah now... seated on our Father's lap, with full joy in His awesome presence in perfect peace, health and true completion of the purpose He had for her life.
In Christian love,
Dave, Tina, Jeremy, Joshua & Sarah Honhold

Dear Cindy and family:
I just returned from vacation and read about little Hannah. I cannot find the words to express my deep sympathy to you and your family. Hope you can find the strength just knowing she is with Jesus now. My family will keep Hannah and your whole family in our prayers.

The Cord
We are connected,
My child and I, by
An invisible cord
Not seen by the eye.
It's not like the cord
That connects us 'til birth
This cord can't been seen
By any on Earth.
This cord does it's work
Right from the start.
It binds us together
Attached to my heart.
I know that it's there
Though no one can see
The invisible cord
From my child to me.
The strength of this cord
Is hard to describe.
It can't be destroyed
It can't be denied.
It's stronger than any cord
Man could create
It withstands the test
Can hold any weight.
And though you are gone,
Though you're not here with me,
The cord is still there
But no one can see.
It pulls at my heart
I am bruised...I am sore,
But this cord is my lifeline
As never before.
I am thankful that God
Connects us this way
A mother and child
Death can't take it away!

Dear Stan, Cindy & family:
We just heard that Hannah has gone home to be with Jesus. Our deepest sympathy for your loss but rejoice knowing that your are going to be richly blessed for the many years you gave to care for God's special person. I'll leave you with Jennifer's favorite scripture: Psalm 139 - God had a plan for Hannah and he will continue to use you in many others lives. Betty Miller & Jennifer

Mr. and Mrs. Szymanski,
The Lord blessed me with the honor of knowing and working with Hannah. She showed such strength and courage through all of her challenges. You are wonderful parents and gave so much love to Hannah. You are a true inspiration. When I came to see her, her arms always reminded me of a ballerina. I believe that she is now dancing in Heaven! God be with you at this difficult time. May He give you peace.

Dear Stan and Cindy: Your joy in the life of Hannah has been an inspiration to many. You have pioneered the way for many others to understand the church's role in accepting disabled people. God chose you as special people to be the parents of a very special child and you have done and been all that God has asked you to do. As Hannah goes forward into the light of God's presence and the fullness of her new life, we pray that, even in your loss, you will find that your lives are complete in knowing that she is still and always will be your beloved daughter.

Can you just imagine Hannah dancing and singing at the feet of Jesus right now?!!! Oh, what a precious sight that surely must be! As the song goes... we can only imagine!
I am asking God to soothe the ache in your heart - especially as you envision her perfectly healed body!
Praying for you,

To Hannah's family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I understand this loss all to well. I wish you peace and gentleness in your grief journey.
Angels Care"
Althought somene drifted
Slowly gently to sleep,
And gave themselves up,
Into Heaven's sweet keep.
Whatever your worry,
Or trouble or strife,
They'll be there , as an Angel,
Within your heart, and life.
So may that Angel with wisdom,
From Heaven up above,
Surely fill and surround you,
With sweet, comforting love.

May God bless and dry your tears as He holds Hannah in His gentle arms. Plant forget-me-nots in your garden in her honor as she was your forget-me-not.
