My condolences to the Dorbich
My condolences to the Dorbich family and friends. Death is an enemy and will be destroyed. (1 Corinthians 15:26). When he was on earth, Jesus performed many miracles, including raising the dead. He said; "Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming in which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice; And shall come forth..."(John 5:28-29). May the resurrection hope comfort you and may precious memories help ease your pain.
My sincerest condolences
The day God called you home
God looked around his garden
And He found an empty place.
He then looked down upon this earth,
And saw your tired face.
He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest.
God’s garden must be beautiful
He always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again.
He saw that the road was getting rough.
And the hills are hard to climb,
So He closed your weary eyelids
And whispered "Peace be thine".
It breaks our hearts to lose you
But you didn’t go alone
For part of us went with you
That day that God called you home
1am so sorry about Jen. I know she fought a good fight and was strong throughout. Know she is with Jesus and is feeling no more sorrow or pain and suffering.
My prayers are with you all.

I am so sorry to hear about
I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I bet she was an amazing truly loving, caring and trustworthy person but she is a better place now and she is not in pain anymore.
A Dear Friend of many, many years
Dear Ely and Dorbich family,
So saddened for your loss. Jen was a friend I have known since kindergarten (that’s about 38 years) and while the years have flown by and time passes, she was a friend that we could catch up right where we left off. She was a friend to many, wife, mother, daughter and sister. We were also co-workers, having worked one of our first part-time jobs together as ‘young-ins’, then again in our more recent years, and always so pleasant regardless of the situation. Jen Ely Dorbich, please know that I am honored to have known you for so many years, you will be missed. Heaven has received yet another angel way before they should have. I will see you there someday! Love, Jen Arters McGonigle (Arbor-Day…inside joke from years ago).
Thinking of you and your Family
Ed, I am so sorry to hear about your family's great loss.
There are never words enough to console loved ones left behind.
I pray that the love and faith of Family and Friends give you all the strength you will need to endure the loss of your beautiful wife.

To Devon
Dear Devon -
Although I have never met you I see your smiling face every morning as I pass you going to your bus stop everyone morning. (Bus #27). =) You continue to smile through the sorrow I know you're feeling in your heart.
I lost my mother 21 years ago today and she lives within me everyday as I hold the memories of her close to my heart. I know you will do the same with your precious mother!
We will all be together again someday and what a glorious day that will be.
Lots of love and looking to our next wave. =)
