My dear Weir high classmate kendra, now that you are in our Lord’s Realm, you are at peace with everything. We fight our earth-bound battles of all stripes as long as we are here, but the true reward is where you now rejoice, as we all will be. Keep a place for us, and lead us to the feet of our Lord. Bless you Kendra, I am richer for knowing you and we’ll meet again. Harry Gabler Monroeville, Pa
No matter what I did you always saw the best in me, I have no clue how I’m going to get by without you. I went to call you yesterday because I was sad and you always cheered me up but when I went to call you I remembered you had left. I sat for hours tonight looking at pictures of you with “our” boys they sure did love you. It’s hard to hear Jack ask where’s my Mam and hear Bubba tell him Mam is gone but she’s alive like Jesus. Don’t worry Josiah will hear all about you and we will cherish all the times you had with him, I just wish you could be here to make his first birthday cake. It’s going to be hard. Rest easy and watch over us. We love you!
Sorry for your lost, Ken and family. You are in our prays.
Ken, So sorry about your Mom. My thoughts are with you.
Ken, You have my deepest sympathy as I know there is no one like a mother. I will be keeping you in my prayers.
Although it’s difficult today to see beyond the sorrow, may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow…..<3
Words cannot even begin to express our sorrow. Scott,Amy,Ava and Gavin Lenigan
