Condolence: Colleen: Fondest wishes for you and your family. As you probably know, 'Mom Crain' has a big influence on me, like for many others I'm sure. Her quiet kindness was a gentle and welcome constant for a chaotic kid -- and her deeds were never forgotten. Only time can heal the loss of a mother, at an age. She was a great one...

Condolence: I am very sorry for your loss . Losing a loved one in death is such a difficult thing to experience . Please be comforted by the promises in the Bible . Jesus tells us at John 5 : 28 , 29 that all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out . What a loving provision put in place by the God of all comfort so we can have the assured hope of seeing our dead loved ones live again one day . Meanwhile as I pray for that day to come I ask Jehovah God to bless your family and give each of you the strength to endure this most trying time .

Condolence: Colleen and Leonard, I am so sorry for your loss. I Loved your Mom and Dad as am sure you know. They were always good to me, when we were dating and even afterwards. I used to visit them when I could, but wish I had visited them more often. I always enjoyed talking with both of them and they always had time to visit with me. They both Loved you so much and were very proud of you and your family. Tell your Dad to stay off the roof when it is raining. I will never forget the night I nearly fell off the roof putting the paper down after we got back from eating dinner together. They are great people and will always have a very special place in my heart. She will be greatly missed by everyone that knew them.
Take care and God Bless.

Condolence: Colleen and Leonard - I have such fond and fun memories of Dot. Growing up I loved to come over to hang and sleepover. Dot was always quick to laugh and grin. OMG - the dance parties. I owe my dancing ability to her - she taught me how to jitter bug. Loved to watch then both dance. My heart aches for both of you and the family. She was a sweetheart and will be missed.

Condolence: Colleen, I remember the first time I met your mom! We were going to ODU for classes to prep for our grad school test and we stopped to get something and she wouldn't let us leave until she fed us♡ She was so sweet and kind and I loved it when she always called us "girls". She did leave the best of herself in YOU. love ya, Becky
