LAURA BERTHA ZACHARIAS

Condolences & Memories (3 entries)

• I went to school with Laura and her siblings. Because of distance we didn’t see each other as much as we’d like, but there were times we got together for lunch when I had made a trip to Winnipeg. We talked about her church, catch up on our families & what they were doing & the tragic loss of their son. Two hours were never enough. I was heart broken when I heard the news, but I knew her suffering from pain would be over. RIP Laura. My thoughts and prayers for comfort go out to you, Jason & family.

• Dear Jack and family, My wife Karen and I were deeply saddened and cried when we heard that Laura had passed away. Laura meant so much to us as did you and your family. Laura was a true Christian whose love for her church and God could never be put in to words to justify her faith and belief in her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She loved serving her Lord by the work she did in the church. She loved music. Her support for Karen and I will never be forgotten. She was my little angel and always told me how much my music meant to her. I will never forget her beautiful smile and her sincere gratitude for the ministry of music. I remember seeing tears come from her eyes as she listened to a mass choir singing the music called "Only God". She told Karen and I that this was her most loved song. She also had a very special love for Rev. Edward Koehler and we had spent time talking about his ministry at Good Shepherd since I my first organist job was with his father Dr. Leonard Koehler at Immanuel Lutheran Church. She was a caring and loving mother, grandmother and friend to her family and all people she came in contact with. On the morning of January 30th Laura had a very special visitor. God held her hand and said "Laura I am taking you home." At that very moment God had wiped away all her tears, pain, and fears for there is "no night there." Laura had finally met her final reward as she was in heaven, safe in the arms of Jesus. To Jack and his family Karen and I will never forget Laura and the love you all had for your wife, mom, and grandmother. God is always with you and will never leave you especially during these difficult times. I just wished that all people had the faith and belief that Laura had. God be with you Laura until we meet again. From Richard and Karen Appler - Posted by: Richard Appler (friend) on: Feb 05, 2022
