Her hard work and dedication to our organization was appreciated and admired by all who knew her. We will miss her enthusiasm, her kindness, and her willingness to help others. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family and friends during this difficult time. We will honor her memory and remember her in our hearts forever.

We are confident, yes, well pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.
