À Louise, Lynne, Mary Lee et familles, mes plus sincères condoléances. Un grand livre s’est refermé. Votre mère est arrivée devant le Seigneur avec ses 98 chapitres. Notre Père du ciel l’a reçue à bras ouverts, ajoutant une reliure d’or à son livre. Il connaît l’histoire de fidélité et d’amour et tous les chapitres de bonté, de douceur, de dévouement d’Helen. William accueille tendrement votre mère, songeant à leur 74e anniversaire de mariage, le 11 juin 1949. Richard est là, comme les parents, frères et sœurs Keough. La famille s’est recomposée. Helen vous regarde, vous qu’elle a laissés ici-bas. Elle vous envoie des rayons d’intense amour.
Perdre sa maman, quelle douleur! L’espérance ramènera la sérénité dans vos cœurs. Vous laissez Mom partir en lui exprimant admiration et reconnaissance. Merci, Seigneur, pour sa longue et belle vie, pour le courage et le réconfort!
Louise, Lynne et Mary Lee, la famille St-Denis vous accompagne avec sympathie, pensées positives et prières.
