Condolences

So sorry for your loss. She was a great woman and I loved her dearly. I will miss our phone conversations, and always her birthday cards and Christmas cards.  She was a very caring woman and very thoughtful in all instances.

I will treasure my memories of Aunt Bette.

 

Love to you all.

I am so sorry for your loss. I know it is tough losing a loved one. I would like to give you some words of encouragement that helped me cope. A lot of people have been told things by others all their life and they believe what they are told just because they want to believe it and it sounds wonderful. What I would like to tell you though is not my opinion or my thoughts but God’s thoughts from the Bible, so please look at your Bible and see the truth. God promises that we will live again but it is not like what most people think. Please look at Revelation chapter 21 and verses 3 & 4 very closely. If you notice here it talks about death and pain being no more now ask yourself is there pain and death in Heaven? That scripture is talking about right here on Earth a kingdom that will be set up and ruled by Jesus that will rid mankind of death and pain, please look at Daniel 2 verse 44 and see that this is a real kingdom.

Although you bacame my Aunt by Marriage to Curt, I never felt comfortable calling you "Aunt Betty". It was no doubt due to our closeness in age. Iris and I will always cherish the good memories of coming to your & Curts home when we were in the early years of our marriage in Kansas City, Mo. We would play Pinochle until late and then would drive back home across Kansas City. The first time I ate Lasagna was in your home and it was delicious. Iris still has your recipt and we always have you in our thoughts when we enjoy it. Curt, Cindy and family, our prayers are for each of you as you grieve. You can be thankful for her love and live with the many wonderful memories of a lifetime together. God Bless each of you and know that Iris and I love you dearly.

Uncle Curt, Cyd, Pascal & Bella:

So very sorry for your loss.  Aunt Bette was a beautiful, gracious woman as I remembered her growing up.  I always looked forward to seeing Uncle Curt, Aunt Bette, Lil Curt & Cindy at family gatherings.  They were all like celebrities to me.  May God's peace be with each of you in this, your time of mourning.

Love & blessings!!
