    Dear Bixler Family. I was a friend of Caro’s in the Lab. at H.J. Heinz from 1974 until the day she retired. We had many conversations of the Biblical nature. She lived to please the Lord. I’m sure she’ll soon recieve her great reward. Right now she’s in the company of the Triune Headship, God the The Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. I’m sure she is so thrilled to be enjoying their sweet company. Besides all her friends and lived ones who have gone on before her. I’m sure she’d tell you I love you all so much, but don’t weep for me. I’m in a awesome place with the Amazing God and could not be happier evermore. My body is all healed of all its ailments and have a new body I’m enjoying so much. Your friend through Jesus Christ Cindy Henkel Longnecker.

    We are so sorry to hear of the passing of your mother. While there is little that can be done to take away the pain, may it help to know that friends and family are sharing your sorrow. Words are so inadequate at a time like this, but please know our hearts ache too as we give you our deepest sympathy.

    God blesses those who mourn, for they will be comforted Matthew 5:4

    Gwen and Gail,
    I am sorry to here of the loss of your Mother and my prayers go out to both of you. I learned of your mothers passing from Bruce. May your good memories and thoughts carry you through these times. I do remember the days and it doesn’t seem that long ago with your Mom and Dad and sister in the back yard under the willow tree at the pick nick table and the old car shows with you and your Dad,s old car. I do believe times were simpler then and family’s got together with friends more often. God Bless both of you and your families.
    With Sympathy,
    Brian
