Mr Travis & Family,
So sorry for your loss. Janet has fond memories of Ms White in school and I am so glad we met later thru church. We have been so blessed and inspired by you.
So sorry to hear of Mrs. White leaving this earth. She was such a sweet lady & teacher, after 40+ years, she still remembered me.
We will see her again one day, I will pray for you during this time.
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort in the words spoken at Revelation 21:3,4 “With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them.
And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away".

Mrs. White was a wonderful teacher. She was one of the kindest people I have ever known. Even after many years she always remembered my name. She will be missed by everyone who knew her.
My love and prayers to you.
Our prayers are with the family of this lovely woman. May God bless you in your grief.

My sincerest condolences are extended to the White family. Helen was such a warm, caring and friendly woman. She and Travis brought the neighborhood together every autumn for their traditional Sunday afternoon backyard party and my children most remember the giant bag of homemade Halloween goodies that Mrs. White gave them every year. Helen showed love and kindness with her words and actions that will always be remembered fondly.
Karen, Jackie, & Family,
So sad to hear of your loss. May GOD Bless & keep you strong.
St. John 5:24,25 says it all. My Prayers & condolences to you.
