It was Maya Angelou who said, “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” On or about a year ago February 2014, I had the honor of coming into the life of Mrs. Squirewell. One of the most beautiful person I have come to know. I also learned that Mrs. Squirewell was a very secretive person but there was one secret that was evident and that was the love she had for the Lord and her family. I would like to thank the family for allowing me to establish a rapport with Mrs. Squirewell because its not what she said or what she did but it's how she made me feel. She truly made me feel a part of her family.
I pray that the family find comfort in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the days that lies ahead of you. May God bless you all.

To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. I pray God's comfort, peace, and strength to the family. Sis. Gert as I have known her all my life was an amazing person with a beautiful spirit. She was also my favorite lunch lady. I just believe that she is resting in the arms of Jesus. Another solider gone home.
