Memorials

Our Friends & Loved Ones

I have chosen to play the midi " Amazing Grace " for this page because it was my mother's favorite hymn. It will always have special meaning for me.

I don't know why the angels came,
And decided to take you away.
They must have needed someone very special,
When they carried you on their wings that day.
I wondered how they could take you from me,
And leave me here on my own.
Then I realized your love would live on inside me,
So in my heart, I would never be alone.

God must have had a greater purpose for you,
When He decided your time on earth was done.
He must have wanted you for a heavenly angel,
So you would be able to watch over everyone.


The angels told Him you were so very special,
And could make the world a greater place to live.
So with wings full of love, they took you to Heaven

Now everyone can feel all the love you have to give.

In honor of our wonderful loving Dad

Rev Armon F. Lathrop
July 1910 - Aug 1984

Dad was preacher for many E.U.B. and Methodist Churches in IN., IL., IO., WI., CO., OR., WA., and CA.. He was born in Pottersburg, KS. July 1910 and his father was a circut rider. He truly loved our Lord and all mankind and he taught his four daughters love of God, Country and Family. It's very hard to see a loved one with this type of disease.
Towards the end he got down on his knees and looked up at his son-in-law and cried
saying "Something is wrong with my head and I don't know what" yes, tears are
coming down my cheeks as I write this but I have so many wonderful memories of
growing up in a parsonage and always meeting new friends everywhere. Dad knows
his four girls love him .

Dedicated In Loving Memory to:

Mary Ellen Rauch

DEAR MOM

Hello dear lady,
I miss your smile..
I miss your wisdom..
I miss you...
Sometimes I catch a glimpse of you
And I hold my breath..
Sometimes memories hit me
And the tears gather..
Sometimes the longing is so great
And I cry...

Hello dear lady,
I'm hanging in there...
I'm fighting the battle..
I'm wishing you were by my side.
Sometimes I think of you
And it helps to ease the way.
Sometimes I remember your words
And it helps to brighten the day.
Sometimes I hear your voice call my name
And it always lessens the pain.

I miss you, dear lady.

"Grandma"

The angels took you away on Christmas Day
Forced no more to linger,
No last word to say.

Jesus, when I step beyond the door
And reach that distant shore,
I could have no better prayer
Than to share both of your hugs
As I enter there.

In Memory of a Special Uncle

Mr. J.D. Bass
of Arlington, Tx

He was one the kindest, most gentlest men that I have ever known. Uncle J.D. always had a kind word for everyone. He was a Spirit-filled man of God who loved Him and his family with all his heart. He was a tall, gentle giant who always made me feel special. He went home to be with the Lord on April 9, 1999, after having spent his last few days at home with his loving wife, Louise. He may not have known exactly where he was in his last days, but he knew where he was going. And that is what made him so special-his relation with his Heavenly Father-even through the very end of his life. I am thankful that God allowed this wonderful man to be a part of my Christian heritage.

I am A certified Nurse's assistant in An Convanstent home in Sunny California. I moved in In January of 99 from Upstate New York... It was a hard move but I am still adjusting But I thought getting a job in what I love to do Was the right thing to do... So I got this Job that I am honored to Have... In a beautiful home.. I started to work Jan 19 And My first greastest memory was being intruduced to Mrs Staples.. Which I loved for her smile and her polite way that she wouldn't Spit for her daughter.... I was talking to Mrs Staples one day and she asked me to Call her Grandma And I told her that it would be hard for me to do so concidering I never had a grandma ... She said it was about time I had one So From then On I called this angel Grandma... I never in my 20 yrs of being in the Nursing field did I ever have such a honor not only was she funny Every Thing was JUST FINE.... The one day she made me feel so good was when I lifted her in bed she told me she she trusted me and loved me...... She meant so much to all of us here in the home But No one will ever knoe how special this lady was to me but her...... Not only was she my resident but she was MY GRANDMA.......I will miss her and I will cherish her memory forever and a day until ONE SWEET DAY.....

This will be in memory of our dear mother

Beatrice H. Rebello
July 20,1909 - Nov 10, 1994

Mom was a beautiful person, full of life and full of love. She loved her home and her family. Mom loved to cook, especially pastry. It was'nt easy to watch her go downhill ever so slowly..Dad took it pretty hard those last years.He passed away before her,although hr mind was frail i could tell by the look in her eyes that she knew he had died. Mom faded fast after that. When i use to sroke her hair as she lay in the bed with that distant look in her eyes i would think how years before she took care of me...now the roles were reversed...... God answered our prayers that night as we all stood by her bed and told her it was ok to go.........I miss you mom
