Dear Theresa & Family,
It is with great sadness that I read your mother’s obituary today. Some people put makeup on in the morning, your mother always put on her warm smile. She was always gentle and loving. I remember approximately 25 years ago when I was working on my first quilt, your mother took it to her senior group and brought it back to me with perfect little stitches. Something I could never top. I think of your Mom every day when I make my bed, because that is where you will find that quilt. I am sorry that we cannot be with you in person the next few days, but know that you are all in our hearts. Our prayers are with you all, and will continue to be every day when I make my bed.
With love
The Bulmer Family
Bob, Yvette, Ryan & Denise, Sean & Jodi.
