Condolences

To: Bob, Simone, Michelle & the Dewell Family:

I realize at a time like this, there is very little one can do or
say. But, I do want you to know you have my deepest
sympathy. God needed another angel so he called Mrs.
Dewell home.

Johnny hired me at Fort Lee. My husband, Garland, and I
thought the world of him. He was a super nice guy.

My thoughts & prayers are with you all. Love Ya! Betsy Bishop

We, Bowmans of Madison Heights and formerly of Petersburg, are most honored to be afforded this opportunity to express our sympathy to the Dewell family for the passing of a Family Matriarch. This lady certainly instilled true family values in the marvelous children and grandchildren. I was blessed to have Michelle and her lovely daughters inspire my life; a true blessing from God, the Father of All.

Fondest love to all,
Ed Bowman (DeCA retired 2002) and family

Michelle, Steph, & Mert:
I know I have talked to you already but wanted to take a minute and say how sorry that I am to hear about the loss of you Mom and Grandma. I have many fond memories of her when we were growing up and of what a sweet woman she was. She is in a better place now and is looking down on you everyday. That love will never change.
I love you very much and please let me know if there is anything I can do.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Jennifer use to tell us stories about her grandmother all the time. I loved hearing them. I never met her, but she sounded like an amazing person. I will pray for God to give you all strength now and in the days to come.

Love,

So sorry to hear of your loss, you are in my thoughts and prayers

You are not alone Jennifer and Family. They say "life goes on"-- just give yourself time to mourn and accept and to heal, though none of that offers much comfort right now with the sorrow and loss you must feel... But deep in your heart if you trust and believe that memories and love never cease, you'll find God is waiting and wants nothing more than to offer you comfort and peace.
