Condolences

Eric Peace Family - Jan 24, 2015

I would like to offer my deepest condolences. Our prayers are with you all in mind. Lovingly, the Peace family.

Joe and Pat Gibboney - Jan 22, 2015

I am so sorry that my being a grandparent in Florida this weekend prevents me from attending the funeral. Nioma was a beautiful. endearing and lovable individual whose absence will be sorely missed by so many of her loved ones as well as those of us who shared the pews with her at Saturday evening Mass. Our prayers will be with you and with Nioma in the days ahead.
