Sincere condolences to the Jardine family.
God Bless
Rest In Peace
I want to offer my most sincere and deepest condolences to the Jardine family on the passing of your dear mother. Dottie was a dear friend for many years. I worked with her in the Dept of Treasury at 33 West State St, Trenton over twenty years ago. Your mom was a very special woman, and a beautiful soul. I’m glad that our lives crossed paths, and we were able to share some valuable time at work. God allowed us to have one of his precious angels. And now, He has called her back to his heavenly garden. The memories will always be there. In spirit, she will always be with us, for all that is loved dearly in life becomes a part of us forever. She is now among the beautiful angels that guided her memorable life on earth. She will be watching her beautiful family from above and loving you as always. May God bless her soul for all eternity. And may God give her family a peaceful heart in this time of need. We offer our prayers to help ease the sorrow. God’s peace always.
