Messages of Condolence

Dear Eddie, Marva & Norm, Garry & Bev and Family - Bertha's compassion, integrity, and love of family and God defined her very being. We loved her so very much! We have such fond memories of her and Mom together. Their laughter and love filled our hearts. Our love and prayers are with you all. ~ Colleen and Bob Ruttenberg

Our thoughts are with your family. Since childhood near Redvers, Bertha and Mom were the best of friends. In later years, they spoke on the phone almost daily! Bertha's smile and kindness will always be remembered. ~ Judy Eichhorst

Ed, Hartley and Yvonne, We are praying for each of you in these days. May the peace and consolation of the Lord will fill your hearts and minds and the memories of the special person Bertha was become ever more meaningful to you. ~ Donald and Faith Scarrow
