You will be missed greatly mammaw but not forgotten. I will do everything in my power to keep your spirit alive in Steven and mason. I hope you know how much that little boy loved you in his short 18 months with you and I hope you felt every kiss.
Owen, Jeannie, Michael, Brent, & Family,
Words won’t take your pain away. I Love you all. I pray God wraps His loving arms around you all and holds you so tight and close to Him. He will provide you comfort and peace as no one else can.
It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not.
They are new every morning
Lam.3:22-23
I Love You & you are in my prayers. God Bless ~~ Kathy
Mama Rose was the best Mother-in-Law in the world, and she was so good to me. She has been a wonderful example of what a Wife, Mother, Mother-in-Law, Grandmother and Friend are suppose to be…I Love You Mammaw and I am already missing you terribly. I’ll be seeing you soon.
I will always remember the times I had with Mammaw Rose. She always treated me like one of her grandkids. It’s hard to think of a birthday or special celebration I had that she didn’t attend. I’m sorry for the family’s loss, but I’m sure there is comfort knowing she isn’t suffering anymore.
God Bless your family.
Dear sweet Aunt Rose, I will miss your smile and your laugh. I have so many wonderful childhood and adult memories of you. I will cherish them until I see you again! Love, Kathy
Our thoughts and prayers are with you during this time of loss. We are so sorry and understand your pain. The Rymer Family.
