Dear Family,
We were saddened to hear of your mother’s passing. We only heard of the news this past Saturday. She was a lovely lady. When my father was alive he found your mother to be great company at the Manor and they would reminisce about times in Holland during the war. Some of the stories they told us were quite comical! Sadly missed.
Sincerely,
Jenny Carney, Rutten and Family

Mariette,
Ce fût un immense plaisir d’avoir pu faire ta connaissance l’été passé; sois assurée que nous n’oublierons pas de sitôt ton humour léger, ton franc-parler qui a fait ta réputation, et ton accueil chaleureux.
Dear Family,
There is not much to say in such a moment, but we are sending you all our warmest love and deepest sympathy.

We were saddened to hear of Mariette’s passing but know she is with the Saviour she loves and is reunited with Richard. Mariette was an inspiration to so many as she shared her faith and life experiences. We particularly remember her telling us of wartime and the story of her Sacred Heart statue. This will be a special Easter for Mariette! We are still in Florida and will be praying with you.
