My husband and I are in Florida but I read about your Mom on my computer. You have my deepest sympathy! I’ll never forget her as my sister-in-law. She was one of a kind. Know that you are in my thoughts even though I can’t be there.

Love,
Aunt Nanc

Cindy, Kevin, David, Stacy and Steph:
I am truly sorry to see that your mom (grandmom) passed away. I remember having fun at Mount Gretna Lake with her when I was married to Stan. I pray that you all will find comfort from your lose. My deepest, sincere, sympathy.
In Christ’s Love:
Pat Rothfus

Sorry I was unable to attend the service today for Aunt Irene. She was married to my uncle and the 2 things I remember most about her was her smile and she made my uncle extremely happy which was probably the best time of his life. You are very fortunate to have had such a loving mother and I’m sure you know that. I was thankful that I knew her; she brightened your day when you had a conversation with her. She will be missed!

Lisa Herr Moser (Esther and Dick Herr’s daughter)
