My dear cousin Meier you will be missed so much. I am so thankful I got to see you a few months back. We had not seen each other since our grandmother passed. My dad, your Uncle Donald loved you so much. He would smile and light up when he talked about you for you were his sister's son. May you now be at peace. Hug Penny tight, I know she is so happy to be with you. I live you,Diane

My sincere condolences to the Conners family. The best friend a bereaved person can have is our Creator, Jehovah God. Pour out your heart to him in prayer because " he cares for you." (1 Peter 5:7) Moreover, he promises that all who do so will have their thoughts and feelings soothed by "the peace of God that surpasses all understanding." ( Philippians 4:6,7) Also, allow God to help you heal by means of his consoling Word, the Bible.John 5:28,29, Job 14:13-17. With sympathy, Candace

I would like to offer our condolences and prayers to Lynn, Kay and Kyle, April and Trey and the grandchildren and other members of Meier's family. We are so sorry that Meier went through so much. this is a difficult time I know at Christmas. But it will be a time of Celebration In Heaven for Meier and Penny and his parents and loved ones. We both knew Meier for many many years. He will always have a place in my heart. I wish I could've said Goodbye, I suppose that was not meant to be. Maybe it is best in the long run. I will miss seeing him sometimes. After 40 years it's hard to just let someone go. I am greatful we both are that he is at peace and no longer suffering. Lynn you know I will always be here for you. You are and always have been like a sister to me and always will be. Trey I have known you since you were just 6 years old. I will always love you. I care about all of Meier's family we both do. I pray for comfort and healing and peace and Kyle and April were such loving children too to their dad. Grandchildren there is nothing like them. Dad, as you know we all called Meier's dad was there when I had Brittany. He was such a sweet man. So was Meier's mom. Such good people. We love you all and we will pray for God's blessings and comfort and that you will have a Peaceful Christmas knowing your mom and dad are together forever. God Bless You All. Amen! Love Carol and George
