Yesterday
The loss of Carol is devastating beyond words. She was a light that touched every single person she met. Her laugh, her voice, her smile, her LOVE will always be in my heart forever. It doesn't feel fair that she had to leave this world so soon. Sending love to every single person that loved her, we all gained the most beautiful guardian angel!!

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.

John and Lillian
Always With You
Though her voice is silent now,
Her love still speaks in gentle ways-
In the quiet moments of the morning,
In the soft embrace of memories.
The heart does not forget,
It carries her laughter, her wisdom, her care.
Every step you take, she walks beside you,
Every tear you shed, she holds with you.
Grief is love with nowhere to go,
But love never dies, it only changes form.
In every sunrise, in every star,
In every tender thought-she lives on.
May you find comfort in knowing
Her story continues through you,
Her light has not gone out-
It shines quietly, forever,
In the hearts she loved most.

Dear John,
Please accept my deepest condolences on the loss of your beloved wife. Words cannot fully express the depth of my sympathy, but please know that my heart and prayers are with you.
I understand the pain of losing someone dear, as I lost my father just four months ago on the very same date that you lost your precious wife. The ache of loss never truly goes away, yet I pray you find comfort in knowing that she is no longer suffering and now rests in peace.
May the Lord keep you and Lily, especially at this tender age. Carol will always hold a special place in my heart. OECC will not be the same without her, the warmth of her contagious smile, her joyful laughter, and her constant desire to help those around her will be dearly missed.
I also wish to thank you for the patience, love, and unwavering support you showed Carol throughout your marriage and during her illness. Your devotion was a true reflection of strength and love.
May the cherished memories you shared bring you comfort in the days ahead. Please know that you and Lily will remain in my thoughts and prayers.
With heartfelt sympathy,
Wilvana Mesidor

Hermana,
Nunca pense que este momento llegaría tan rápido, pero nuestro Dios en su infinita misericordia sabía que era lo mejor para ti. Peleaste la buena batalla. Descansa en Victoria y en La Paz de Dios. Siempre en mi corazón tu hermana Iris.
