    Dear Harvey and Family, My thoughts and prayers and deepest sympathy is with you in you time of great loss. Your Mom was always so nice and cordial to me and I'm sure she was a perfect Mother to you. Jim Rourke had called me yesterday with the sad news. Stay in touch, Tim

    To the family of Helen, what a wonderful women and mom she must have been! Back in 1972 I lost my mom and know how hard it is. However what brought me hope and comfort was scriptures from God's word, like John 5:28,29 that talks about a resurrection back to life and Psalms 37:29 that speakes about life right here on Earth , everlasting life. So I hope looking into the bible will give you some comfort to get threw this hard time. Sent to you all, sincerely Sparkie Edwards

    We are both sorry to hear about your Mother. We remember her dancing up a storm at the weddings. She obviously enjoyed life. God bless you all.

    My deepest condolences! Your mother was a classy lady and I have many fond memories of her. I especially remember how she and your dad were always so kind and helpful to my family. Although a terrible loss, I’m glad she and your dad will finally be reunited in Heaven. They lost each other much too young. Unfortunately, I cannot attend the services, but please know you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Deb, it’s been much too long, so let’s catch-up when you are able. My email is [email protected]. With love and sympathy, Liz
