Dear Pete, Shannon, April and family
My sincere condolences on Vanessa’s passing
She was a very special person I’m so glad our paths crossed
My favorite memory was our Friday afternoon by the pool
just chilling .
You’re all in my thoughts and prayers
Thank you so much.
Pete and Family,
My fondest memories of Vanessa was her smile and laughter. She had a love for Bunko and was missed when she was no longer able to play. She did like her gardening and her love for an ice cold beer after working outdoors. My condolences to you and the family. I know she is rejoicing in heaven and will be watching over you all. God’s Blessings! Marilyn
Pete, Shannon and April
She touched a lot of people in her lifetime. My heart breaks for the loss of a most loved wife, a cherished mother, and a longtime best friend. I loved Vanessa dearly and smile when I think of our times together. We could always laugh til our face hurt – and then laugh some more. Prayers for peace, comfort, and guidance in this time of trial. Words cannot express what a void her passing leaves in our lives. God has her now, she is safe and free from suffering. Rejoice and celebrate a beautiful life lived. How blessed we are to have had her in our lives. She believed so much in Angels and now she is one. Much Love…Kim
