Hi Jim and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. I will not be able to attend the service at St. Anne’s as I am babysitting my granddaughter and it would not be appropriate to bring her along. I will be with you in spirit at this time of sadness.
Heather, Mike and Famiy.
We are deeply saddened to hear of the loss of a mother, grandmother and friend. May the love of those around you help you through the
days ahead.
We’re truly sorry for your loss.
Love,
Carrie Co-Dyre & Brian Hipkins

Dear Scott&Family,
Our heartfelt condolences go out to you and your family.This poem has given comfort to me in the past and I hope it does the same to you…
I give you this one thought to keep –
I am with you still – I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am sunlight on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awake in the morning’s hush
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not think of me as gone –
I am with you still – in each new dawn.
Thinking of you,
Steve,Anna&Isabella Lepore
