I am sorry I can’t be there with you today. I am thinking of you and praying for you and your mom. I have such fond memories of those years. Your mom was always so good to me. I pray that she is resting and in peace.

I would like to offer my deepest sympathies to you. I am so sorry for your loss. Please know that you are never alone. You can find comfort from God’s Word, the Bible, knowing that He is near to those broken at heart and crushed in spirit.
Sending condolences to the family. Prayers for peace and comfort.
Our deepest sympathies to Tim and Loni and the entire Henkel family! You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Although Rosie was my aunt she was so close in age to a group of cousins, Patsy, Betty, Donna and myself that we really thought of her as a cousin. I think of her as a gentle and kind person. I was an attendant at her wedding. She sponsored me at my confirmation where I adopted her name. She is an important memory from my childhood. My best thoughts to her family in Minnesota.
With Deepest Sympathies to the entire Henkel family! She will be dearly missed by the church group and entire community. And of course seeing her the bazaar and family tournaments. May memories, pictures and stories in time heal your broken hearts.
