Дорогі: Слава Ісусу Христу! Пробачте що не було можливо нам прибути не похоронні відправи, однак парафіяльні відповідальності не дозволили. Одначе будьте певні що ми єдналися з Вами у молитвах і далі будемо молитися за Вашу покійну маму і бабцю. Також будьте певні о наші молитви за Вас усіх. З нашими молитвах і щирим співчуттям, родина Татарин (Waterloo)

Dear Mary, Lesa and all your family. It's hard to understand Why God takes those we love. Does He need them more than we do, In Heaven up above? No one on earth can pretend To know what's in God's plan. All we can do is take it on faith And trust we'll see our loved ones again. With our affection and deepest condolences. Olga & Victor
