Ginny,
I am so sorry about your mom. She was such a sweet person. You and your family are in my prayers. Love, Sharon
WHAT a lady!! So thankful to have been a small part of her care at Arbor Terrace.
May God Bless and comfort you in this time of such a great loss.
May God Bless the Milazzo’s. Friends from the early ’80’s. Mom and Dad together again, never to be separated. May her memory be Eternal.
Dear Anne,
My condolances to you and your family on the passing of your mother. I remember her well from my visits from our Greenville Tec. days.
I’ll keep you in my prayers. May she rest in peace forever. Love, Nell
We were so sorry to hear about your Mom. We know how much she will be missed. We were very blessed to have known her, your Dad and all of you. Know you are in our thoughts and prayers. May our Lord,Jesus, comfort you as only He can! Love, George and Diane
Anne,
I was so sorry to see this obituary about your mom. I hope you know we are thinking of you! I was driving by the cemetary at the time of your mom’s service. I didn’t realize it was hers. Again, I am so sorry. Take care.
I’m so sad to hear of your family’s loss. I know how it is to loss someone you love to the enemy, death. What made me feel better was the scriptures from God’s word the Bible. The prophet Isaiah painted this touching picture of the resurrection at Isaiah 26:19 Jehovah God himself promises that our dead love ones will live again. Soon they will be brought back to life that’s the sure hope of the resurrection. What a wonderful time that will be.
Dear Lord! I was looking for Jidge and found this instead. Y’all must think me horrid and negligent, neither of which I am, and certainty never regarding my Godmother! Please understand that I am most regretful for this oversight to have occurred.
Blessings to all of you,
Mary Pratt
