Please accept our condolences for your loss. We are thinking about you. Len and Jane
Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Brad and Kae, as you cope with this chapter in your family's journey. It was wonderful to share some Knox family dinners with Loretta; her caramel pudding sauce at Christmas time is a recipe we have all enjoyed! May wonderful memories of your mom, and Mallory's grandma, help you celebrate her life, remind you of her love and bring peace to your heart. Sincerely, Don, Linda, Sarah, Mike & Becky and family.
To all of Loretta's family: Loretta was a very special lady. She has been an important part of the Jillard family for 60 years. We all loved her and were truly blessed to have known her. May Loretta's gentle, generous spirit and memories of her big smile comfort you and give you strength during this emotion time. Chris
To Brad and Kae and all the rest of Loretta's family. We will sorely miss seeing this fantastic lady at the annual Brennan reunion. But what a fantastic life she lived. We should all be so lucky.
To all of Loretta's family: Our sincere sympathies to you all in the loss of Bert and Loretta. We hope that knowing that others care will bring you strength and comfort in this most difficult time. Quite by accident, I came upon Bert and Marion's 50th anniversary announcement several years ago. My grandparents (Jim and Pearl Lindsey) were long time ago friends of Loretta and Erwin and I remember the conversations from the past. In searching the internet, I found Bert and Marion's address and phone # and contacted them; and in turn was able to greet Loretta during the remaining years on behalf of my grandparents. I don't remember the connection but I do remember the fond memories that my grandparents spoke of often. Our condolences to all of you.
We are terribly sorry to hear about the loss of your Mother. We know how much she was loved by you, your family and friends. We also know how much you will miss her. We pray that God will bless you all with peace and comfort during this difficult time.
Ted- I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and Patti.
