Inner card's sympathetic messages
Your mother gave
so much to so many
and left each
wonderful memories.
May it help to know
that those who knew her
are remembering her....
and thinking of you.
"Memories will always
keep her near to all of
the hearts that loved her.
Out of all of the Everett Para transit
bus drivers that signed that card,
only Karl remains and he has been
driving for 17 years now.
We meant him for the very first time,
when we lived on Madison.
To the best of my knowledge,
the office staff has changed
since 2007.
The following two persons who
sent us a sympathy card
was Robert Chase and Chris
Yeaton.
Chris, moved to King County
in order to be closer to his
father. We never saw him
again.
Robert ,also moved away from
his former Compass Health
group home to his own apartment
complex in Everett.
He also was a client of theirs
and I used to see him at their
older building on Broadway,
that was torn down and has
been rebuilt at the same location.
I have seen him a couple of times
since then but I have not seen him
for years.
You mom was like a mom to me.
Also I am sorry for your loss.
Robert Chase and Christ Yeaton.
Not knowing you
Was like knowing you
Robert had you as
a Wonderful Loving Person
R.I.P ELEANOR You'll be very
Missed by Robert
Robert drew a picture of a
single flower on their card
Card's outside message
LOVE
lives on forever...
in the memories,
in the stories,
in the hearts of all
whose lives
have been touched
by a very,
special person
Card's inside message
MAY IT COMFORT YOU
TO KNOW
THAT WHILE THE ONE YOU LOVE
IS NO LONGER WITH YOU.
PRECIOUS MEMORIES
WILL LIVE IN YOUR HEART
FOREVER.
If I find any more sympathy cards,
I will list them all here.
