It was with sadness that the Prayer Shawl Group from St Nicholas RC Church on South Washington St. In W-B, PA noted the passing of one our former volunteer members. Hermine was gracious, kind and generous and a most welcome addition to our number. She was an extremely skilled and caring crafter and patient teacher as well...willingly sharing many tips with us as we attempted new patterns and unfamiliar stitches. She was especially happy assisting beginners. We've missed her and her upbeat greetings and warm smiles!
Her contributions to our Ministry were always beautiful pieces, made with love and prayer that were gladly added to our collection and deeply appreciated by those who received them during times of grief or other of life's difficulties.
Please know that all of us extend our heartfelt sympathy to all of her beloved Son & family a dear friends at this time of loss. May she rest in the PEACE of heaven that she so richly deserved...trading her "earthly Angel" status for,as noted in the newspaper, that of HEAVENLY ANGEL...We were Blessed to have been part of her loving circle of friends.
