My sincere condolences to your family May you find comfort in your loving memories, and in Jehovah God's promise to soon "swallow up death forever" and "wipe away the tears from all faces." (Isaiah 25;8) With deepest sympathy

Dear Tommy Joe and Judy, We all know what a blessing she has been in our lives; and to all of Aunt Marys precious grandchildren, I hope you all got to know at least a glimps of who she really was in her life before becoming so ill. Her ruby red smile would brighten the darkest day and she was so happy when she was with family and friends. Oh to be able to fill her shoes by having her zest for a happy life whenever and wherever she was. I have always loved her dearly and thank God I was a member of her wonderful Zuber family. Lovingly with prayers, Dorcas
