Mary Louise was in my class at Leicester High School and although it had been many years since I had seen her, I remember her and her sisters fondly. I know I speak on behalf of our entire class when I say how sorry we are to lose another classmate and how we wish we could have seen Mary Louise more in recent years.
My sincere sympathy,
Lovella
Your entire family is in our thoughts and prayers.

My prayers and love are with you. My Bible tells me ‘to be absent from the body, is to be present with the Lord’. Mary Louise has run this race with love and diginty, and now paid a debt we all must pay. She will be with our Saviour for Christmas, rejoicing around the throne. Love to all of you. Bonnie
My sincerest sympathy goes to each of you. Rest assured Mary is resting in the arms of our Lord and Savior today. God’s Blessings to each of you, Hazel

Randy Kim and family,
Randy I am real sorry to hear about your Mom. I know how difficult this is and especially here at the holidays. Please know I am thinking of you all and saying a special prayer for you and your family.
When we worked together at Coke seemed like we all were family and we all were close. It’s been a while and I see some of the gang once in a while. My husband lost his Dad 2 days after Christmas 3 years ago and we know how how difficult it is. May God Bless you and if you need anything just give me a call both David and his Mom Margaret have my number. I am sorry I can’t come to the service as I will be teaching.
Dear Meadows family, Our prayers and thoughts are with you. May God comfort each of you at this time of sorrow.
