Memories and Condolences
for Edith Bachmann
January 1, 2013
My memories of Aunt Edith are of a very gentle, quiet but always smiling and loving mother to her children. She and her children were always a part of my growing up years. Aunt Edith's passing brings to an end a generation of aunts and uncles who played a major role in our early lives. Aunt Edith will now continue to look after her family from on high. May she rest in peace.

Grandma,
Today was a hard day for many of us. We will miss you so much. You looked beautiful as ever. It is hard to not to be able to see you. I know you are where you want to be but it is so hard not to cry. I hug someone and they tell me you were a wonderful person and I cry I talk about you and I cry I look at pictures and I cry. My heart just hurts. I know it will be easier as time goes on but I hope you knew how much you were loved and cared for. You were the best!

I am so sorry for your loss,losing a loved one is never easy. However, Psalms 46:1 reminds us to rely on God because he is our refuge and can provide comfort and support to all those in need.

My thoughts and prayer's are with all of you during your time of loss. I can remember as a teenager going to her apartment with jackie when she lived next to KMART and she would give us candy before we would leave. I have been blessed to have a friend who through the past 23 years would share stories about her grandma with me. Hold your memories close to your heart and know that she will always be in your heart.
