Dear Rick and family Mike and I are very sorry to hear of your mothers passing. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We think of you often when we talk about our childhood memories on Rectory St. Blessings from Emily and Mike.
Northup family : When you lose someone you love, they never really leave you. They move into a special place in your heart. I felt sad to hear the news. May her soul rest in peace.
Sorry to hear of your loss. I truly enjoyed the visits we had with Helen over the years and listening to her many adventures. She was a compassionate person, with a strong testimony of our Savior, she will be welcomed with open arms. I truly enjoyed listening to her playing the piano. She set an example for many of us, she will be missed. May all of your happy memories help you through this time of grief.
Sorry for your loss. Was a friend of Rick's during early high school years. Couldn't get to the service as I was quite busy at work. Hope to hear from Rick sometime. Take care - Guy*
