My deepest sympathies to the entire family and tons of friends. May God comfort you and ease your grief. I met Iva Vandervoort at Clarkston Community Church where I learned about her unconditional love for all children. Raising all those children, especially to be good Christians, was not always easy. But, Iva was always firm but loving. She always had that calming smile that said "All Will Be Well". God bless her loving soul! Jeanne A.
