Condolences

Dear Kerrigan families: We wanted to share that your Mom was/is the greatest most faithful woman we have ever met. Her faith was steadfast and inspirational. I first met her at the Little Rock Bible Study Group held in Wyoming. I was so touched by her incredible ability to quote scripture by the exact verse, chapter and Book of the Bible.Others like myself wrote down our answers for the homework but Ellen never scripted her therapeutic notes. She instinctively knew and quoted precisely which words and advice were associated with the subject in the workbooks.She touched me as the most caring and considerate mentor I have ever known. Our Creator will most assuredly raise her "On Eagles Wings and hold her in the palm of His Hand". Rest in Everlasting Peace Ellen! God has and will keep blessing each of your families as they celebrate your life on earth and in your glorious Eternal Home. Families are Forever....Pat and Norm Triest.
