Dear Peggy and family,
Nora was such a sweet lady, smiling and laughing, and able to tell just about anyone from St. Mary’s county some of their family history. Remember all the good times with her and cherish those memories. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. God bless.
Dear Cathy & all the Family: Sending my most heart felt thoughts and prayers to you during this time of loss of this beautiful lady!
“While you throw all your anxiety on Him [God], because He cares for you.” -1 Peter 5:7
My sincere condolences to the family on your loss. Ms. Catherine is sure to be missed by those who knew her best. Please take comfort in knowing that you do not have to deal with grief by yourself. Rather, the God of the Heavens and the earth, promises to be there in your time of need (Psalm 34:18; 2 Cor 1:3,4). He has also made it possible for you to see your loved one again through the resurrection of the dead to the earth by means of His son, Jesus Christ (John 6:40; Psalm 37:29). I hope that you are able to find comfort in meditating over these scriptural thoughts as well as in the love of those surrounding you and the precious memories shared.
To Nora Family, So sorry to hear of passing of Nora such a sweet lady. I am sure of the meeting of my Mother & Nora they are just having a great time talking about all of the pass. Just remember that death leaves a broken heart but wonderful memories will last a life time. May she rest in peace now.
