Dear Robert, Anthony, and your families,
I just wanted to pass along my condolences at the loss of your mother. I was the Catholic Priest called in to administer the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick and prayed with some of you in this most solemn and sacred ritual of the Church’s life.
I have been praying for her and for all of you since that time and will especially remember your mom when I celebrate Holy Mass today.
May our Loving God give Anna eternal rest and peace and may He give all of you His consolation now and always.
God bless you.

Rob and Sarah, so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. We were good neighbors for many, many years and ever since she moved and we moved we have thought of her a lot. She was a special woman, thoughtful and strong. She knew when to cut out the nonsense.
We recall the passing of Tony as well. Those two people made a deep impression on us.
We give you our condolences and hope that you will be able to move on with your lives after the many months you gave to your mother.
Don and Anna Ruth Jacobs
