I had the honor of knowing Maria through my work as a RN at Dr. Peter Stahl’s office. I shall greatly miss her smile, her joyfullness and vivacious spirit. My thoughts & prayers are with her family and friends as they mourn the loss of this special lady.
It is with Great Regret to see her go. From what little time we knew her she touched our hearts greatly. She brought smiles to our kids eyes when she watched over them while they were swimming. She will be missed and her memory will live on within all of us. Sandy, Colton and Doug introduced us and it was a God send for us to meet sucha Wonderful Person. God Bless and our Prayers go with you.
May the soul of our departed Maria and the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God REST IN PEACE Podera a alma das nossa partido Malmequer e os espiritos de todas as fiel partido as longo do dia merce de Dues descanso em paz
My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. Now you are at peace with your mom and dad.
To Rob, Jamie, michael, Sandy and all the beloved members of Maria’s family, We send our love to you in this very difficult time. We and I mean all of us, really loved Maria, it was just so easy. I personally, will never forget how she took me under her wing and welcomed me into a very new environment here at work. We laughed all of the time and everyone said, Maria has met her match when I arrived. We laughed at everything even when it wasn’t funny! ….,.and for that I shall always be grateful, no appreciative of the warmth. I am pretty sure that everyone she met, felt the same way. Her love of life was contagious and I remember laughing about some people, saying that they had to be made of ‘stone’ to not appreciate our humor!!!
You may be onto another, better place but you’ll remain in our thoughts and hearts forever. You taught us how to live and love, lessons never forgotten. Our broken hearts go out to Rob, Jamie and Michael.
You will always be in my heart. I will never forget your unbelievable generousity and friendship. Thank you for all that you were. Love, Trisha
