Alex & Karen, we were so sorry to hear of your Mother's passing; unfortunately we did not see the notice until after the service and feel badly about not being at the Church to express our condolences. Please know that our prayers are with you and your family. The loss of a Mother or Father is extremely difficult, we all wish and hope that it never has to happen but the Good Lord has his own schedule and determines when he wants to call his children back home. We believe that her falling asleep in the Lord is not the end but the beginning of everlasting peace and happiness. We can find solace in knowing that we will be united with her at some future time and able to share with her the everlasting peace and joy. Our deepest sympathy to you both and May God bless you. A donation to St. Thomas Church will be made in her name.

Talked to my mom today and learned of Florence passing. As a little girl on those hot summer Akron days I would brush her hair for a Nicole in the cool family basement. She was do sweet and soft spoken. Sure wish I could have seen her one last time, I loved this woman. Hours were spent swinging spent on the front porch chatting about nothing. You boys were so blessed to have such a wonderful mom. Love to all.
