Ray so sorry to here of your loss you will be in my prayers warren and betty
Dear Holstein Family, I am so sorry for your loss. I have such pleasant memories of Aunt Rose Mary. Such a delightful, warm and caring person. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you. Much Love, Ann (Holstein) Boyer, Ft. Wright, KY
I have lost my best friend.
We are praying for peace and comfort.
We are so sorry and saddened for your loss. A candle is burning here in honor of Rose Mary, a faith-filled and loving woman. Our prayer is that you each find comfort in your treasured memories of her.
I used to tell my brother and sisters that I was mom’s favorite. I knew better, but I had fun telling them that. Mom always gave us blessings each night we went to bed. She’d stand at our bedroom doors and gave the sign of the cross blessing three times to each of us. She was a very deep spiritual soul, and totally devoted to Christ and the Trinity. I admired the way she endured her crosses in life, and how prayer was her solace in trying to find peace. I miss her already being a phone call away for words of encouragement and understanding, but if she felt I was wrong, she’d tell me that too. When I last pulled out of Mom and Dads driveway, Dad was there giving me the sign of the cross blessing for a safe trip back to Louisville just like Mom would. I will grieve many times I know. It comes in waves. But the reality for me is that God had blessed me with such great parents. I pray that she has only peace and love in her being now. Love was her gift to all of us, strangers included. I know that she’ll be telling God there’s a better way to do things, and I know He will laugh, and so will she. Don’t make the small problems great, but make the great problems small. Dad tells me lovingly that we kids have made them pray their way to heaven. Not a doubt in my mind.
Now my distance from her is even greater, but some how, I feel her closer.
God Bless to all of you.
Our prayers are with you Holstein Family. I didn’t get to be with my cousin too often, but when I did, I knew she was special.
God Bless You All.
