Michelle, Dale, Nicole and Eric,
We know how much you loved your mom and grandmother and what a great blessing you all have been to her. We’re praying God will continue to hold you close to Him and give you His peace. I wish I had met your mom, although I do remember seeing her at StoneBridge events. From reading about her and seeing her pictures, I can tell where you get your vivaciousness and friendly, gracious spirit. And, from listening to Nicole talk about her on Grandparent’s Day, I’m certain that her spirit will continue to live on in all of you.
Michelle, Dale, Nicole, and Eric:
I am so sorry for your loss. I know words won’t ease the pain you are feeling. But I hope you feel the love that surrounds you all. You know she is in a better place but it does not stop the tears or stop missing your mother/Grandmother. You are all in my prayers and cherish the memories. Smile when you think of her. She is with you always. Don’t think it this as a loss. Think of it as a gain. Because you all have gained a Guardian Angel who will be looking out for you. Prayers Always.
Michelle, my heart goes out to you and your family. Your Mom will be missed by many, many people.
My Dearest Michelle and family,
Candice, Mary and the family send much love and prayers. We are so sorry and offer you strength in your wonderful memories.
My sincere sympathies to Michelle and her family. Betty and I have been friends for many years and I will cherish the memories of our working together at Superior Services. She was a very special friend, and I will miss her greatly.
Our sincere sympathies to Gerald, Frances and Family. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. God Bless
Our thoughts and prayers are with
you and our family.
Sweet Michelle,
I love you and the only words I know that can truly comfort are the living words of God. from 1 Thessalonians 4:13 And now, dear brothers and sisters, we want you to know what will happen to the believers who have diedf so you will not grieve like people who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and was raised to life again, we also believe that when Jesus returns, God will bring back with him the believers who have died.
15 We tell you this directly from the Lord: We who are still living when the Lord returns will not meet him ahead of those who have died.g 16 For the Lord himself will come down from heaven with a commanding shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet call of God. First, the Christians who have diedh will rise from their graves. 17 Then, together with them, we who are still alive and remain on the earth will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. Then we will be with the Lord forever.
We knew your Mom from working below her in the same office complex for the past 6 years. She was a bright spot everyday. Always a smile and a kind word and always looked amazing. We have missed and will continue to miss seeing her beautiful face, smile and spirit. Much love to you Betty and to your family.
