Beautiful thought at ( Jeremiah 29:11,12) "For I well know what I am thinking toward you, declares Jehovah, thoughts of peace, and not of calamity, to give you a future and a hope. And you will call me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you."

Prayers for Velvets family. She will be very much missed by many. We can find comfort knowing that she is healthy, and happy in the arms of Jesus. She will be at the gates of heaven to meet those she loves that are still here on earth, when each one arrives in heaven. Praying for God to comfort your hearts, as you grieve her passing into eternal life.

I remember Velvet from elementary school at St. Josephs as a very sweet girl & friend. Some years later she ended up being the hair dresser for me & my wedding party unbenonced to me until I arrived for the appointment. That was a very pleasant surprise and gave us time to do some catching up. So very sad to hear of your passing; Rest In Peace my friend, deepest condolences to your family. Julie DeVillier-Cormier

Velvet was a special woman she loved flowers and caring for them. We worked together many years ago at a nursery called Ecolodge Orange. She help me create a green thumb and my love for flowers. We had a special flower pot that I still have today called a friendship pot that I will cherish forever and still think of her every time I walk past it. Velvet will be missed by lots of people for making the world a more beautiful place. Your friend, Jamie Shepherd (Vardeman)

I did not know Velvet well but I knew her to be a compassionate wife, Mother, and friend. She was my neighbor for several years and always had a kind word to say and a wonderful sense of humor. I am devastated at the passing of such a beautiful woman (both inside and out) and will remember her fondly. She is resting in the comfort of angel wings and more than likely giving them a make-over to make them even more beautiful than they already are. Rest peacefully my beautiful friend.
