Hey Lori,
I am sorry to hear about your mom. Your family has done so much for me back in the Trinity Lutheran School Days. I will always appreciate you and your family for all the kindness you all showed to my family. Give my love to your dad and please know that my heart and prayers are with you all at this time.
I was so sorry to hear of Dorothy’s death. I will always remember her as the great mom next door. Sorry I wasn’t able to make her services. All of you will be in my prayers. Thanks for remembering my mom earlier this year. Janie
Lori, Biff and family – Although I did not know Dorothy, I can understand the grief that you are going through at this time. Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you all.
Lori, Biff, Lawrence and all – Dorothy was one of the finest ladies we knew – All of you were blessed to have her as your wife, mother, mother-in-law and Grandmother. I know you will all miss her much- She was such a good Christian and pleasant and fun to be around. I have not seen Jeanette, Susie or Chuckie for some time, but have seen beautiful Lori and handsome Biff and also talk with Lori on several occasions. God be with all of you. Love from Midge and Tom
My thoughts and prayers go out to Lawrence and all the Joseph family during this time of loss. May God bless your family.
