  2. Dear Jeanette:

    I am so sorry to hear about your mom but am so happy she is with the Lord and having the time of her life now! I wonder if she has met mama yet?

    Our prayers are with you and your family and God’s grace will get you through these next few days. Just visiting with you today I can see God’s grace already at work.

    We love you and you know if you need me I am as close as a phone call away!

  10. We were blessed
    How blessed we all are to have been in a family where such a woman existed!
    Her humor, love, kisses & hugs are ‘things’ we always took with us.
    She always thought of others first, putting herself at the end of the line.
    When I asked her once ‘Why she does it?’? She replied simply
    ‘Don’t worry about me, I’m just fine.’?
    How blessed we all are to have known her.
    Her kindness, strength, and heart,
    She made each of us feel we were special.
    From her prayers, you’d never depart!
    Always a deep love for her family and God,
    You’d know this right from the start,
    I feel so blessed that she was my aunt
    She’ll always be part of my heart!

    Bertha, We’ll miss you!
    Love, Donna
