Dear Norm and family, I'm so sorry you all and the rest of this world have lost this wonderful friend of mine. I remember her when we roomed together as nursing students. She seemed always to be so serene, calm and unflappable. She was so fast to grasp the concepts presented in our nursing classes and it took me forever to catch on. I remember she would go home for the weekend and come back to the dorm on Sunday eve. with 2 or 3 new pieces if clothing. She was an awesome seamstress! She cheered me greatly and I loved her a lot. I miss her very much Thank you Lord for this wonderful friend. Muggs

Words cannot convey the deep sorrow I feel for you and your girls/families at this time in your lives. Arvy was such an example of living her life withandf for the Lord Jesus and she glowed with His love....which will always be a special memory for me and my memory box. Prayers for you and yours from an "old time" friend...Dorothea Sherwood. Always remember, when it gets tough...you have many friends you can share with and who will help you carry your cares. (Jesus is always with you...) and yet it is nice to have caring friends with skin. I am thankful to have known you all....

My heart aches with you. A mother is probably the best friend you could ever have. Now she will be able to watch over all her loved ones all the time. Always with you. I wish you all peace and love.
