She is fondly remembered as being a selfless and very caring person who was always there to help others in anyway that she could. She was a great listener when you needed an ear and would kindly offer her advice, showing both sides of the situation. She was a wonderful Mother and grandmother. I am home in Heaven, dear ones: oh so happy and so bright! There is perfect joy and beauty, in this everlasting light. Do not grieve so sorely, for I love you dearly still. Try to look beyond earth's shadows, and pray to trust our Father's Will. There is work still waiting for you, so you must not idly stand. Do it now, while life remaineth, for you shall rest in Jesus' land. When that work is all completed, He will gently call you Home. Oh, the rapture of that meeting, oh, the joy to see you come. I love you all and will be in your hearts forever. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be offered to: Zion UM Church, 1155 Felton Rd., Red Lion, PA 17356.
