My deepest sympathies. I worked with Steve at Pathmark many years ago. But remember His mom from The hospital.

We would like to offer our condolences for the loss of your dear Gladys. At times like these, it's not easy to find the right words, but, we hope you will find comfort in Jesus' words at John 11:25, "I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life." May God's peace strengthen you at this difficult time.

Its really hard to let go of someone who you love very much and thank you for everyone who came to pay final visits to my grandmother it meant alot to the whole family and it meant so very much to me. I will never forget my grandmother because she was the greatest she always gave me hope and made me strong to achieve so much more by fighting for what I believed in she really loved everyone in this family and her grand-children along with my grandfather. I love you and miss you both very much and hope that you are joined together once again.

I was saddened to hear of Mrs. Krouse passing. I have fond memories of her from my childhood on Weldon Road. We would have gangs of kids hanging out on the street and going from house to house to play. She always welcomed us into her home and when there was a boo boo that needed to be attended to, she was the one to go to. My heart-felt sympathy goes out to my childhood friends, her beloved children. She's now in heaven watching over you.
