So sorry to hear of your Mom's passing.  We had just had a wonderful letter and card from her at Christmas, so were shocked when we read her obituary in the paper.  Your Grandpa Reamer was my Grandmother Lucinda Reamer Hovarter's brother.  I met your parents while doing genealogy research.  They were so very sweet and kind in helping me gather family information and shared so many photos with me.  I will be forever grateful to them for their kindness and the love they showed to us.  We know how much she missed your dad.  Now they will be together once again.  May God be with all of you during this difficult time.  Love to all, Sharon and Bill Wilcox

Mark, Vickie, Kay and families,

I wish that I could be present to personally express my condolences and share what your mother meant to me, but Frank and I are in Florida for 7 more weeks.

I can imagine that the Lord is saying to Margaret, “Well done my good and faithful servant.”  Margaret was the first to know that her salvation was by grace alone. Confident of this she spent her life in service to God and others.  She was a leader in many ways. In her later years her service was mostly behind the scenes such as making sure that a family facing a special crisis had meals for long as they needed or welcoming new comers by inviting them out for lunch.  In regards to women’s ministry Margaret became my mentor and my encourager as I served at St John, and as I worked on my masters.  I will forever cherish the times that I spent with her.

To Kay, Mark and Vicki, as well as the whole family- I wish I could be there on Friday to be with all of you and to honor your precious mother.  She was always so good to us when we spent all those wonderful hours at your house growing up.  She was such an important part of the Kendallville community and gave so much of herself. She will be greatly missed.  What a loss for all of us. I send you big hugs and my heartfelt condolences.  With much love, Sally

It's only such a short journey for our loved ones that so eagerly put themselves into God's unfailing hands. To be sure our mothers are already singing the praises only heaven's glory can offer. What a blessing to know that they're all there and we shall be with them in the by and by. May God's comfort encircle you warmly with wonderful memories and love.

I worked with Margaret on the Rehwinkel Scholarship Fund.  She was one of the nicest ladies I have ever meant.  She always had a kind word and a giving heart.  Her and her husband Alfred always impressed me by their love for one another and their faith.  They were true disciples, living and showing their faith by the way they lived their lives.  Our prayers go out to their family, knowing loss is difficult, but knowing that they are in Heaven with our Lord and Savior is a blessing and celebration.  May GOD continue to comfort and bless your family.

Dear Mark,Vickie, Kay and families,    We are sad to be out of state and not back in time to come pay our respect to your dear mother.   We loved chatting with her and your father after church on Sundays.   Your mom always gave me a hug each Sunday. She was such a lovely, mighty fine gal. ( your dad always gave a hug too!).    We will miss her as we have missed your dad.     Our love goes with each of you at this sad time.  May all your warm memories be of comfort to you now.   It truly is a sad chapter but a glorious reunion in heaven we are sure!    Love, Anita and Tim Hess
