Dearest La Verne, Linda Carol, Paul and all who treasure their love of Mrs. Bodemann,

We extend our hearts to each of you; as we also hold the precious memories of our mother's (Sito's) friendship with Mrs. Bodemann.

I recall, joyful memories of conversations from their kitchen phones about Paul's discoveries when he was a toddler.

Her graciousness is a legacy to you both.
So many of her loving ways are so visable in each of you.

Donna Lee and Mr. Bodemann's hearts are now united with her in the Lord's presence.

....May her celebration of the timing of Christ's Resurrection along with God's calling her HOME... comfort you. For His Glorious Face Now Shines upon them and grants them Eternal Love in God's Kingdom..

In Christ's Love,
Nashla,Aziz,Slaimen and Goddaughter Najla
