    We are very sorry for your loss and our condolences to all. The pain of death can be overwhelming no matter what the age. The Bible provides comfort during difficult times. We are promised at 1 Corinthians 15:26 that very soon “death will be brought to nothing.” Then we have the prospect of being reunited with our loved ones right here on earth. – Psalm 37:10, 11. We hope this brings you comfort and hope.

    Daisy was such a beautiful, loving person. She had more life in her than most 30 year old people. When she gave you a hug you knew you had a hug because she could squeeze you like no other. Daisy, we are really going to miss our Sundays with you and the Mouse Races. You were a wonderful, wonderful person. Our heartfelt condolences to all of the family, especially Art, Fran, & Bob. I know God is going to have a hay day when Daisy arrives at the Pearly Gates of heaven, we love you. See you soon Daisy.
