I never got to say goodbye the way I had hoped. But I have no doubt you loved me and I am sure you know I loved you too. You were there when I needed you and I am proud to say you were my mother. It wont be long I'll be with you. I love you Mom, you were a friend, a loving parent and I will miss you on earth until the time comes that I see you in heaven...

Mom, I never had the chance to say what was on my mind. Someday I will see you again, sooner rather than later. You meant so much to me, were always there for me. Most of the time I didn't have to say a word and you still knew I needed to talk. I think of you often, my children always ask about you. You left a lasting impression in their minds. They like myself love you so very much. I know you are with God as is Dad. Your both dancing in heaven and even though I want to be with you now someday I too will be there to. I miss you mom. I love you so much.

Your son Dave

when everythings over
our memories linger on everything we touch
our lives imprinted in our actions
we leave behind a peace of us
each moment we live
our essence, our souls, our passion

when everything is over

To all of the children of Nora and Ed Magee, our sympathy goes out to you. Your precious dad and mom were wonderful christians and loved each of you dearly. Your dad was my mother, Dorothy's older brother. Your dad and my dad Al, were 6 months apart. Thank you for calling me. Please know they are all in heaven now and probably talking about all their good times. I always enjoyed your visits to Indiana. God bless you all. Love and prayers, your cousin Joyce Silvers, husband Bob, children, Mike Fisher and Shellie Butrum and their families. We will have a grand reunion day in heaven someday.

Dear Grandma, my mom has to write this for me if I could speak I would have told you everytime I saw you that I loved you but I think you saw it in my smil. You loved me unconditionally from the day we met. Thank-you for praying for me and my family. God blessed us with a grandma who loved the Lord and one day we will be together again grandma and I will be walking and talking and praising GOD with you and my grandpa. I will miss you always in my heart

Mom, It is difficult to put into words my feelings for you. Through all the cuts and bruises of childhood you were there to comfort me. Whenever I had done something wrong, you were there with that thundering velvet hand to discipline me. And, whenever I did something great, you were there to applaud. You gave so much of yourself and never asked for anything in return.

When dad left us, it was easy to see just how heartbroken you were. I will take solace knowing that you are with him now and the pain you were feeling is now gone.

You will never be forgotten. You slipped the surly bonds of earth and touched the face of God. Thank you for the countless wonderful memories. I so love you, mom, and I will miss you.

Grandma, I am so grateful to have spent time with you. You are an inspiration for having loved so many and been loved by so many. You and grandpa will live on in my heart, and we will all be together there forever and ever.

Grandma, I'll miss you and will think of you often. I am so lucky to have you part of my life and the lives of my children. Besides touching your immediate family you were instrumental to the community near and far.

I could never have asked for a better mom. She taught me a love for sewing, the word of God and the Lord. I will always remember the end of our phone calls was with mom saying "remember that momma loves you" and I would respond back "And I love my mommy".

My deepest condolences to the Magee family. Sister Nora Magee was a wonderfull woman who dedicated her life to serving the Lord. She was a minister of the Gospel In a time when there were very few women ministers. She was a pioneer in so many ways and a great minister. She will be missed.
