I love you mommy and will miss you
Kevin, my deepest sympathy to you. It must have been wonderful to have someone so special to call your Mommy. May God carry you and your family during this time. God Bless you.
Thank you so much
Prayers for you, Kevin!! There will be days when your heart seems to explode with grief. And there will be days when your heart shines bright with laughter. Embrace each day as it comes. Remember this: our Creator, God the Father, grieved the death of His Son, Jesus. But, like you grieving for your Mom, He knew His Son would return to Him in Heaven! Your Mom is there now…..waiting for you!! Continue to honor her by living your life here serving the LORD!! I Love You, Cuz!! ❤️
Thank you so much
Fly with the angels Aunt Nan. I will miss our handwritten letters and hearing your voice and laugh and that connection to my mom. You once told me that I was the daughter you never had and I cherished that. You will be sorely missed every day. I cannot imagine not reaching out to you or getting your next letter or card in the mail or getting that look and laughing together about the accent Kevin thought you had.
Rest In Peace. Until we Meet Again. Love You Always. Your niece, Christine
Ann Schwarze has left a wonderful legacy by evidence of her son, Kevin. Although I never knew her personally the upbringing is evident within him as a devoted and dedicated follower of Jesus Christ. I pray the Holy Spirit comforts all who mourn her during this time of sorrow. God Bless.
