  4. We all have special memories of Mary. These memories we will hold dear to us. We are thankful for the Lord bringing her into our family. You see, she married our grandfather J.B. Miller. We were blessed with a wonderful new grandma, whom we loved VERY much! Grandma Mary was a beautiful woman with a heart after the Lord.
    She was greatly loved by family and friends and by her Heavenly Father.
    Because of grandma Mary’s relationship with The Lord, we know that, even though we will greatly miss her, if we have relationship with The Lord also, we WILL see her again.

    Much Love and Prayers for the family,

  7. You are in my thoughts and prayers. I can tell you from my experience that I found comfort in reading the Book of Psalms and to this day I still have to go back to these scriptures for strength and courage to face another day. May the Lord bless you and keep you together as a strong family and may your mother’s strong testimony be passed on as a legacy for your kids and grandchildren and great-grandchildren and …etc.

  8. A great woman of God who loved her family above all. I will miss her greatly, but I know she is with Jesus and that makes me happy. I know I will see her again one day, and you can too if you make Jesus Christ Lord.

  11. We didn’t know Mary had went to be with the Lord until we read it in the bulletin at church yesterday. We loved Mary so much, she was a wonderful Christian & a beautiful woman outside… but most of all on the inside. She beamed with the love of Jesus! She always had a ‘HUGE’ beautiful smile on her face! We will miss her, our prayers are with you Robert & Cathy and we know you will miss her ‘SO’ much, but the assurance that we have is that we know you will see her again and be together forever in heaven. Thanks be to our Lord Jesus for our great Salvation!
    We love you-
    Larry & Sharon Fleet
