Mike & Phil–I did not know your parents well, but well enough to recognize they loved their family unconditionally. If all parents were capable of that, the world would be a better place.–Phil Deming
Dear Phil and family…….I am so sorry of your loss. I lost my Mom several years ago and I still miss her and I know you do as well. Jimmy Dale was a tenant of ours for many years. He always went to eat and see her weekly or oftener. He always talked about her, sharing with us. We miss him as well. May God continue to comfort and heal your broken hearts……..from an old Class of 57 schoolmate……Keith & Barb
Mike, Phil, Jerry, John, and Debbie,
I am so sorry for your loss. Your mother was a kind, caring, thoughtful person. May God bless her with peace in her heavenly reward, and may God be with each of you in your time of sorrow.
Phil, Mike, & Jerry….Your parents were certainly one of the reasons that growing up in C’ville in the 50′s was so wonderful. I sometimes wonder how they put up with us. Celebrate a wonderful life.
She is all that is right and good with Christianity. Her faith was genuine, quiet and very powerful. She had a profound and pivotal impact on my faith and my life. The most important thing she passed on to me was how important and central forgiveness is to our lives. The love she showed me and all those she touched flowed from that and that will be with us all always.
Phil/Mike We had some great times with both your parents. Life was good to them and all of us.
Debbie, Mike, Jerry, John, Phil and your families, I did not know your mother, but I can see that her legacy of diligent work, honest values and love live on in all of you. She was an amazing woman, to have gotten a higher education in a world where most women did not, and during the Depression, too. She was the sort of great woman who built this country.
I am so sorry for your loss.
Mike, Jerry, John, Phil, Debbie and families, what a wonderful life your mother lived! May God hold you and your memories tenderly in this difficult time.
