I love you Mommy with all of my heart. You are one of my heroes besides Daddy! I miss you terribly, and I do not know what to do without you in my life. I will make you forever proud and I will try to be a hero, whom protects all against all enemies foreign and domestic. I will always try to achieve till I finally cross that line. I love you Helen Beatrice Richardson Rones with all of my heart, mind, body and soul. You will be missed greatly. I love you Mommy. Forever and always your oldest son, Nathan "Nath" Mayo Rones

I am sorry for your loss. Dr. Rones was my physician many years ago and that was where I met Helen. May she rest in peace and may you find comfort in knowing that others share in your grief.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to Beatrice's family, that's the name I knew her by. Nathan, I remember when you were a little boy running around in Dr. Rones' office on New Jersey Avenue. He was my doctor from the time I was little girl until adulthood and I moved out of the area. I got to know your mom from visits to Dr. Rones. She was such a kind, quiet and gentle lady and I liked her very much. I am very sorry that she is longer around for you, your brother and her family. I know she will be missed but now she is with your Dad. May she rest in peace until you see her again one day.
