  1. Dearest Rita,
    I’m so sorry for your loss. Heaven was blessed with your Mom’s presence today! We must hang on to God’s promises of ‘no more sickness, pain or sorrow’ there & one day soon, we’ll all be together again.
    Please let me know if there is anything you or your family needs, or some way I can be of help to you; I’d be happy to. Love you!

  2. Dear family,
    We were sorry to hear of the passing of your Mother. She and your Dad were such good neighbors when we both lived on Birchwood Lane in Parkway Forest. We know that she will be greatly missed – she was such a wonderful person. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you all. Sincerely, Joyce and Bill Waters
