Hey Grandma it’s me Amelia, just wanting to let you know I’m thinking of you a lot today. I miss you more than words can say. I love you so much my Angel
Ronnie,
I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Addie.
We will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.
Addie was one of the kindest people I've ever had the privilege of knowing. My prayers are with her family always and I hope they find comfort in knowing that she was loved and cared about by many friends and family. May she rest in peace.
Ronnie, you are in my thoughts.
My deepest Sympathy for your loss. I grew up with Addie I remember the paper route that we would go on. We always had a lot of fun. I always felt a part of the family. I spent more time with the green family then my own.
Sadly as the years have gone by we lost touch Addie and I.
But the memories are in my heart
God Bless
Jackie
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with all Addie's family and friends. I knew her for most of my life. Addie started cutting my hair when I was in grade school and up to when she retired. Going to see her was like visiting family and we always had a good time talking. She even came in on her day off to fix my hair for my wedding day. I still cannot find anyone that can cut my hair like she did. I asked her once if I came in on all fours if she would groom me, but she laughed at me and politely said no. Addie will be greatly missed, but we must remember that a special person like her is now with our Lord Jesus Christ and there is no greater place to be than there.
Love and prayers to her family.
Words cannot express the depth of our grief and the loss we feel losing our dear friend. Addie was truly a "One of a Kind" and we will miss her greatly. She had a heart of gold for animals and people. She was extremely hard working, dependable, loving, caring and ethical. She was so much fun to work with and be with and she can never be replaced. She could groom dogs and cats that no one else could touch. They all loved her because she was so patient and kind to them, it would never occur to her to be cross or mean. We were blessed to have her as a friend and employee for 15 years. She enjoyed her work with the animals, but truth be told, she loved their owners too. She was extremely proud of her 4 grandchildren. The world lost a beautiful person, ( inside and out ).
Ronnie & Family I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Miss Addie. I will keep you all in my thoughts and prayers.
Very sorry to hear this news. Craig/Laurie and family please know you are in our thoughts during this difficult time. Hug those girls tight as this will be tough on them as well. We love you guys and will continue to lift you up in prayer.
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. Loosing a loved one is never easy. I lost my dad in 2010, and my mom in 2012. After my losses, reading Revelation 21:3,4 gave me real comfort. It says: 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. I hope reading these verses also give you comfort during this difficult time. GW
