    Hi Judy and Joanne, My condolances in the passing from death in to life with Jesus Her Lord and Saviour. She often talked to me about her faith and knew her salvation was in HIM. She sounded like a great lady, full of laughs. It was a pleasure for me to look after her this side of heaven. May God comfort you in your loss. Blessings, to all. Clara

    Judy and Joanne. My deepest sympathy on the loss of your mom. I picture her up in heaven, wearing red shoes and laughing with her beloved Aubrey. I will miss her smiles, her sense of humor and her stories. She may not have recognized you at the end, but she could always tell me who her girls were and she was proud to talk about you. Sincerely, Trudy
