    My sincerest sympathy to all the family for your loss. Helen came and helped mom when Eugene was a baby over 50 years ago . She was a very nice lady and well remembered.

    I have memories of a kind and friendly lady. She grew up two farms north of me and I remember her parents as well. She was always interested in others. Our sympathy to all of you.

    Dear Jeanie, Joanie and your families. Your wonderful Mom was one of my wife Phyllis special friends and a very special lady to so many of us. These good memories no one can take from us. The comfort we have as believers is that separation on earth is only temporary because of Jesus we can look forward to meeting again.

    Dear Jeanie and Joan, our sympathy is extended to you and all your family at this time, as you mourn the loss of your mother. But we who have the blessed hope of eternal life with our Lord, Jesus Christ, know that this separation is for but a short time, and that we shall all share in a glorious reunion, when we also, shall enter into the presence of Him who calls us all to Himself.
    Our love, prayers, and thoughts, are with you at this time.

    Dear Jeanie and Joanie and family!

    I am so very sorry for the loss of your mom, Aunt Helen! I have such fond memories of her and all our times together! The gas station, the wonderful baking and the farm and how generous and loving she was! I hope all the messages, the memories and time spent with friends and family will help you through this difficult time! I wish I could be with you at the funeral but sadly can’t. I am with you in my thoughts though! She is at peace! Thinking of you all!

    Dear Joan and Jean and families;
    Please accept my deepest sympathy at your loss. I remember your mom and you girls from Centralia area. I remember you girls coming to church and Sunday school with your mom. We would often meet in Exeter while shopping as well. I do remember your mom’s smiling face and how pleasant she was. We met your mom again at the Bluewater Rest Home last year when we moved my mom there. Although I did not recognize her at first, my sister Faye did. We introduced ourselves and she did seem to know who we were when I said that we were Bob and Iva Blair’s family. It is always a shock when a passing happens and no matter how prepared we are for it, it still is difficult. You are in our thoughts and prayers. God bless.

    My deepest sympathy to you Jeanie, Joan and all the family. It’s never easy saying good-bye to someone so loved and cherished. She was very proud of her family and was a beautiful woman inside and out! She will be celebrating with many of her friends and family gone on before. Hold on to the memories and may God comfort you and be all you need in the coming days. xo Sharon

    Love, hugs, and prayers for God’s comfort at this time of loss, from both ourselves and your Living Water church family!
    โ€œNever again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat upon them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.โ€ (Revelation 7:16-17)
