Dear June and family,
So sorry for the loss of your Mother. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Dearest Brenda, Kathy, Larry, Mary's children, and the rest of the family,
So sorry to hear of the passing of my friend Mary Frances but knowing that she is in her Heavenly Home with her Mama and Daddy and other loved ones that are there waiting with open arms, I am thankful for her salvation. My heart goes out to each of you and I pray that the Lord will wrap His loving arms around each of you and give you the love, peace and comfort that you need at this difficult time. I pray for strength and comfort in the coming days, months, moments and times that you need a Comforter.
Mary was a sweet, gentle spirit and she was a friend to all who knew her. I am thankful for our friendship over the years and our times that we bowled together. Rest in Peace Mary and enjoy the Blessings that you so deserve. God be with all of you at this difficult time and hold to those loving memories that each of you hold dear in your hearts.
Love and prayers, Barbara
Sending prayers for Mary Frances' family!! We have been school friends for many years, in addition to being bowling buddies!! May God wrap his arms around all of you!
I wish I could be there to put my beautiful Aunt Mary to rest. Although I know she is in a better peaceful place with our angels in heaven, I will miss her dearly.
Aunt Mary- Until I see you, Uncle Leonard, my brother John David, Uncle Bill and Uncle Authur again, hugs and kisses! Your favorite Neice,
