Dear Lorraine and Peter, Please know that are thoughts are with you at this difficult time. With deep sympathy, Jamie and Debbie
Dear Lorraine…my sincerest condolences to you and to your family. May the wonderful memories of your Mother bring you comfort and peace in your time of grief. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Fondly, Marybeth
Harry, Lorraine & Richard, your mother was the nicest person anyone would want to meet. She was loving, caring and reached out to anyone that came in contact with her. She will be missed by anyone who knew her especially me
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Ms. Massini. I hope the loving memories you have shared will be treasured in your hearts. Please take comfort in what the Scripture says in that God has promised a resurrection and to remove the enemy, death, forever. I hope you find comfort in these promises.
Lorraine, I share your sorrow of losing your mother. My deepest sympathy to you and your family. My mom has been gone for many years and I still find myself talking to her or seeing something through her eyes. You never really lose someone you love. Fondly, Carol
Mom had a wonderful outlook on life and she always found something good in each and every person she met. I will always remember her hearty laugh and sense of humor-especially on April Fools Day. A shining light has gone out on earth, but shall be re-lit in Heaven. Swede, Lorry, and Richard-my thoughts are with you at this time.
