Condolences for VIOLA DOLORES CHASE
Tracy and Family,
Sorry to hear of the passing of your aunt. May you be comforted in knowing that she is at rest in the arms of Jesus. I will keep you in my prayers.

We are so sorry to hear about Viola. Seems like she lived a full life. We are sure your family has many wonderful memories of her. At times like this the Bible comforts me so much. Jesus said in John 5:28&29 there would come a time when those in the memorial tombs would hear his voice and come out. This would also be at a time when Revelation 21:3&4 says there will be no more tears, pain or death. This would all happen when God’s Kingdom comes, the same kingdom that Jesus taught us to pray for in the Lord’s Prayer. What a wonderful prospect for Viola and all those in the memorial tombs now. We express our deepest sympathy. We hope you find comfort in this time of loss.
Please accept my sympathy on the death of your mom. I remember babysitting with you all about 50+ years ago. My grandma, Anna Schmit, babysat with you and when she went to Arizona, I took over. You were still living in the small house across the street. The rooms were situated that you could go in a circle from one room to another. Boy, Jim, did you love to do this – Being 13 years old, I was afraid you would get hurt!!! Then when Mary Leigh was born, I started babysitting with her when she was two weeks old. The rest of the family would go to Waverly for the afternoon and Mary Leigh and I would hang out. Your mom and dad were such kind people, caring and understanding. I have some good memories and sure that you have many of them. My God bless you. +-+
