Steve and Mary,

We are sorry that you must bear the burden of your loss. We know that you provided great support to Aunt Mary and were very involved with her care and helping her have a good quality of life and security in her senior years. Unfortunately we all know that death is a part of life that is inevitable for us all. Now that Aunt Mary is gone we know that her suffering is ended and she is at peace. She had a good life, and you have done so much to show her your love and respect, and return to her and pass on to others what she taught and showed you about love and being a family. Now, we all can look forward to being re-united in heaven some day, when there will be no more worries, no more old age, no more pain and suffering and only immeasureable joy, and peace and love - forever! What wonderful reunions and celebrations there will be on that day!!

With all of our love, our prayers and our appreciation for you both, and all of your extended family.

Bob and Jody Murphy

Steve, Mary and all the family. Our prayers will continue to be with you during this difficult time. Treasure those special memories that you created with her. We love you. Bob & Jody Murphy
