I was very fortunate to be accepted as an extended family member due to my relationships with her grand daughter Tara and working for son in law Aaron Brunson. I have many memories birthdays, and yes deaths that we were all together. It saddens me to know she will not be at Sophia’s birthday coming up, but my heart is happy she is with our Lord and savior. To all of her family my deepest condolences, Carol, Lillian, and James, it is my hope that all of the memories we and you have shared with her bring you comfort because not even death can take those from you. Tara, I love you sister if you need me I am here.
Always, Berni Suarez
Carol

In Christ’s Love,

Marie was so cute playing Bunco, She really got excited when she rolled something. We will miss her kind and joyful spirit!
Lillian, I am so sorry for your loss. We will miss her so much in our Bible Study group. She was always so kind, loving and compassionate to all of us. We will also miss her delicious baked goods. I’m sorry that I am under the weather at this time and will not be able to attend the services. Pearl Thibodeaux

Dear Carol,
A Mother is truly a gift from God. I know your heart is broken even though you have many wonderful memories of your mom. May God comfort you and your family during this difficult time.
Love and prayers,

My condolences to all Marie’s family. I enjoyed her friendship through St. Bernadette’s church. She was in our thoughts and prayers until through God’s mercy and peace He has taken her home with Him.
Our deepest sympathy to Marie’s family. May she have eternal rest as she is now in God’s loving care.
Sincerely,
Alvin and Virginia Malinowski
Marie crossed my mind today, so I looked her up and found her obituary. I just want to say that she was always very kind when we worked together at CenterPoint, she trained me and was not only my supervisor but also a good friend. I remember she volunteered her time at St. Augustine. May she rest in peace, my condolences to her family.
