Sandi – please find some peace and rest for yourself as your Mom has now found. She lived a long and loving life and passed along many of the values of a good life to you and your family.

Sandi,
Although I never knew your mother, she must have been a wonderful lady to have raised such a wonderfully caring daughter. I am so glad that you know that only her body died, as we are all born to do, and that she is now with our Lord!
Having already had your father go Home, I know you understand that the pain will fade, albeit slowly. I truly wish that I were able to take your pain away now however!
God’s love to you and your family,
Leslie (Bridges) Kohler

Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers at this time. I never had the chance to meet your mother but I’ve always heard what a fine person she was. I have no doubt that those traits have been passed on to the next generation.
Mom,Shelley… Wish I could have been there with you today for the service.. Love you miss you! See you soon!
