Condolence From: Laurene
Condolence: I found this poem when my mom passed in 2007. It helped to comfort me at that very sad time and I hope it helps to comfort all of you now, as your mourn the death of your mom.

The Rose Beyond the Wall

A rose once grew where all could see, sheltered beside a garden wall, and as the days passed swiftly by, it spread its branches, straight and tall.

One day, a beam of light shone through a crevice that had opened wide. The rose bent gently toward its warmth then passed beyond to the other side.

Now, you who deeply feel its loss, be comforted - the rose blooms there, its beauty even greater now, nurtured by God's own loving care.

Condolence: Dear Rita and family. Please accept my condolences for your loss. As your hearts mourn the loss of your loved one, I pray that you are able to rejoice in the promise of salvation from God through our savior Jesus Christ in all the days to come.

Colossians 3:1-4
If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God. When Christ who is your life appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

Condolence: MATILDA, I was just looking at our year book last week, with many happy thoughts. And your mother became a daily thought!! My sympathy to you and your brothers and sisters as well. I write this to you as, I know you best. I can not make it to the visiting. As,I am ill right now-but within a young spirt..
Your mom was always a hard worker with such a clam being, that showed with much glow of pride. I always remembered this of her, from such a young age. You should be very proud..
As, a MOM, I'm sure that she left you all with one last gift... How to die with grace. As, my mom showed me.
If you are able to give me a call, 860-653-4440. My best to you and yours. Marcie.

Condolence: Rita, so sorry to you and your family for the loss of your Mom. Just think about the long wonderful life she has had, and all the beautiful memories she had experienced in her 94 years of life. We are never ready to see them go but we know she will be in the caring hands of God and still watching over you from above as all Moms do. Please know we are thinking of you.
