In 10 days it will be the second year of your passing, and I still miss you tremendously and love you very much. You continue to show up in every aspect of my life on a daily basis, like it or not! I am thankful to you for showing me the way to Him. Because He lives, I too will be reunited with Jesus, Dad, you and Dan, and I am so excited about that. I am thankful that you showed me the way to Jesus and that one day I will be with Him too! God bless you Mom. I miss talking to you every day; no regrets. I love you! Here's a bouquet of flowers since I can't give you fresh ones on a weekly basis! Enjoy them; they're "Heaven Scented!" :) Uh, Hem!

It's hard to believe that it was one year ago today that we said goodbye to our mom. Although I miss her, I know that she is enjoying the presence of Jesus at this moment! She has also reunited with my dad and brother and I can only imagine the sweet reunion they had! I love you and miss you, Mom!

Fond memories fill my mind as I think of Neva, my sister. We grew up in a happy home. All through our maturing years we shared our fun times of the past. Today I am missing our chats. I also look forward to joining her with Jesus in our heavenly home in His timing. What joy that will be!

My heart is heavy with and for you (the family) but at the same time I rejoice with you in knowing that she is "home" and reunited with Jim and Dan. I have numerous fond memories of the family coming to Garrett County. I remember the time when I was going through a valley and your mom sat at my mom and dads kitchen table and ministered to me. She ministered through her own past experience and the word. It was greatly appreciated then and still is. I can still hear her words of reassurance.
My heart and prayers go out to the family. Blessings Mill Yoder

I would like to extend my sincere condolences to you for the loss of your loved one. May you draw comfort from the Bible's promise at Acts 24 : 15 which expresses that there is going to be a resurrection. It is my hope that you reflect on this hope as you continue to mourn.

Aunt Neva was married to my husband's uncle. I first met her when Dick and I were dating 50+ years ago. We often went to their house on date night. With seven kids there was always something fun going on. Later, Aunt Neva got me into selling Dutchmaid Clothing with her. What fun times we had! As the years went by, our family grew and I got a "real" job, we didn't get together very often, but she always made me feel welcome. She was a great lady and will be missed by all who knew her. Dick and I send our condolences to all her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Your loss is our loss, too.

Dear Sanders Cousins',
We are sorry to hear of Your moms passing and know that she is in heaven with your dad and brother and smiling down on all of you.

Just wanted to share a favorite memory with all of you. One summer while she and your dad were visiting at the cottage along with Aunt Barb, they were all sitting on the dock have a grand old time. Roger was out water skiing and saw the opportunity to to take them by surprise and get them wet. He skied in so close to the dock that everyone was in shock and all got soaking wet. I was filming this momentous occasion while being eight months pregnant and almost dropped the camera and was angry at him for awhile. Your mom just laughed her head off and said " good one Roger"!

Know that we are praying for you in this difficult time and sending our love.

Always,
Roger and Susan Orton
