May God bless Mrs. Woods and may her family be kept in her loving arms until they are able to be with her again. Her family is a true testament to the wonderful person she was on earth as they have demonstrated her loving caring ways in each person they have touched.
Susanne and Family: I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. It is never easy, but prayers help a lot. What a beautiful picture of her and the dog. I know you will miss her terribly, but please call me anytime you want to. I was so pleased to meet her the week before. She was a delight,very alert for her age, and such a wonderful person. I will always remember her and will keep all of you in my prayers. I know she will be watching over all of you. Take care. Mary Ann Vecchio
Dear Jim, Patricia,And Susie, our thoughts and prayers are with you and all the rest of the family at this very difficult time. We wish we could be there with all of you. You know we loved your Mom and just wish we could have been close enough for visits. We enjoyed seeing her so much the last time we were in Florida. Thank you Susie for bringing her to Pauls. Your Mom was my first friend in Germany and she helped me so much with so many things, like the language, customs and how to take care of our first baby. We will never forget her and all the fun times we had with her and your Dad. Our love to all of you. Joe and Billie
