Condolences
The family of Josephine A. Squires has received the following condolences.
To familySo sorry for your loss !! May you find peace in your happy memories
God's Word, the Bible, provides the greatest comfort of all. The Christian apostle Paul stated: "I have hope toward God . . . that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous." (Acts 24:15) Thinking about the Bible-based hope of a resurrection can be the greatest comfort while grieving the loss of a loved one and Jehovah always keeps his promises.
Doug, I remember you telling stories of your mom and the farm when we were with Adair. Teresa's dad, Leonard Miller is at Golden Living Center also. He's been there 6 years or more. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Jean and your family. Tom & Teresa Small.
God Bless You Jo
You're in a wonderful place now
You will be truly missed
Rest in peace my Aunt. I want you to know I still have the teddy bear and picture you gave to me when I was born. Love you so dearly....Jack and Grace
So sorry to hear of Aunt Jo's passing. We'll always remember her as a kind and wonderful person. I loved going to her house! She made the best macaroni & tuna salad on the planet and I made a point of mentioning it to her because she would smile and it was a kind of private joke between us. What an amazing and special woman...she'll never be forgotten.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Squires family. God Bless you!
Tom and Sharon Fontana and family
