Dear Eifel Family,

We wish we could be with you to hug you all and let you know how sad we are about the passing into eternity of your loving mother. She was a wonderful friend and great neighbor. May she rest in peace in the arms of Our Lord and His Blessed Mother. Mom & Dad are now united again enjoying their eternal life together. May you all find strength in each other and forever treasure the memories of the happy life given to you all through their love for each other. It was a blessing to have been part of their life.
