Tucker: I am very sorry for your loss. Ginny was a great lady and we will miss her.
Cathy (and Bob),
I hope you take comfort in knowing what a wonderful thing you did for your mother in her later years. It is rare when such an opportunity presents itself - and more rare when such a challenge is accepted.
Of course your mother was a remarkable lady. You and Bob are evidence of that. I know she made a profound (positive) impression on me, and I'm sure many others as well. It is with gratitude I remember her, and the lessons she taught me in the third grade.
My deepest sympathies are extended to you, both, as you work through the process. Please remember the many fond memories I'm sure you have. May they bring peace to your heart, and a smile to your face.
Cathy,
So sorry of your mother's passing. What a long and full life she had. May you find comfort in your memories - she will always be with you in spirit and her legacy lives on with the many people she cared for.
Please forgive this little trip down memory lane: your mom was my teacher in Grades 3 and 4 - to this day, whenever I need to multiply without a calculator I hear the mulitplication facts in your mother's voice ("six times four is twenty four"). In so many ways big and small your mother lives on with the many children she taught and influenced.
Cathy, I'm very sorry to hear you lost your mom. She was always so kind and giving. I have many fond memories of our grammar school years and her. My prayers are with you and your family. Paula
Cathy, Rick and Bob,
So very sorry to hear about Ginny's loss. I'm out of town as I read your message, so I regret that I will not be able to attend the funeral.
Ginny was an amazing lady,and memories of summer visits to GLP and her generous hospitality are forever imbedded in my mind. And, of course, nothing will ever top "swordfish in your washing machine?"
All my best wishes to you all as you work through this difficult time of loss.
love,
Christine

I am so sorry for your loss. Unfortunately I too know how it is to lose a family member in death. I also know that at first it may seem that there is little hope but I've found some of the promises in the Bible to be a comfort in distressing times such as the promise we have in the twenty-fifth chapter of the book of Isaiah where we learn that God, 'will actually swallow up death forever and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah [God] will certainly wipe the tears from all faces.' (Verse 8) Such promises always help me to see that God does care about each of us and since He, like a loving parent, hates to see us cry He soon plans on getting rid of tragedies that we now have to face. There are so many more promises in the Bible that can encourage us both now and in the future, but I hope this brief scripture helped you as much as it does me.
