My heartfelt sympathy to the Brady family in your earthly loss and heaven’s gain. I will remember your family in prayer for comfort and peace during this difficult time.
My thoughts and prayers are with my Favorite, Tracy.
Debby and my sympathy and heartfelt condolences go out to Tracy’s children, siblings and all of Marge’s extended family. Marge was a lovely person to know. She was easy to make smile. She was beautiful inside and out. I am honored to have been assigned a nickname by her that I will always treasure. God got very lucky and we are at a loss. Marge is home with Charles and we should be joyful for her.
“Look! The tent of God is with mankind,
and He will reside with them, and they
will be His people. And He will wipe out
every tear from their eyes, and death
will be no more, neither will mourning
nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The
former things have passed away.”
Revelation 21:3,4
May you rest in the loving arm’s of the most Blessed Mother Mary.
My condolences to Tracy and family. It was such a pleasure to have met momma. She was such a loving and compassionate person. She hadn’t even met me before she started praying for me and my family. Her prayers carried me through my time of grief and I am so greatful to have met her. What a beautiful treasure she truly was to all.
My heartfelt condolences to the Brady family. This beautiful, loving and compassionate woman touched so many lives. She was a true prayer warriorer for me at the worst time of my life. Momma made you want to be a better person and I feel as though I am because she touched my life. Her faith was strong and she was courages. My she rest in the living arms of our creator. God bless her.
Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. We are so moved that one of our rescue dogs found a home and family that loved him so much. We are also happy that he loved her so much to be her faithful companion. Rescue dogs provide love during times we need it. I and the Needy Paws Rescue Family send our deepest condolences.
