Iris Marie Cain Abney

On behalf of my mother in law, Jo Imogene Hilton, we would like to express her condolences. We just learned that Iris Marie has gone to be with The Lord. I have been in Imogene's family for 34 years and can not tell you how many stories I have heard about the two of them growing up together as young girls and then young women. They remained good friends throughout their lives. Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.

So sorry to learn of this great woman leaving us but going to be with the Lord. She always offered hug and a smile to everyone close to her. The great little community of Nome will feel her absence.

Well, here we are a little late but just learning of Iris' passing. You have wonderful memories of a very special lady in so many of our lives. From church, to 4-H, to family and community gatherings, she as always there with her hug and her smile. Prayers and blessings to all of you. Lots of love, Kay and Nancy, John, Collier, and Families.

We're all going to miss Mrs. Abney. She was always a second mother and mostly a friend to me growing up. I wonder if she's already started a 4-H Club in heaven.

We are so sorry for your loss.

Always a special place in my heart for Mrs. Abney. Heaven opened the doors for a wonderful lady. You will be missed.

Offering my heartfelt sympathies to the Abney family for the passing of a wonderful Christian mother and friend. I feel blessed to have benefit of so many fond memories of Ms. Iris through 4-H, Vacation Bible School, and First Baptist Church - Nome. Her departure will no doubt leave a void in the Nome community, but I'm sure Heaven just got a shade brighter!

So sorry to hear about the loss of this precious lady. The family will be in my thoughts and prayers.

May you all be at peace knowing she is now with our Lord in heaven. I will keep you all in my prayers.

Mother and I are sending prayers for all of you. She was a part of our lives for as long as I can remember. Our wish for you is wonderful memories of happy times and the knowledge that she will be remembered as a loving, gracious woman, mother, and grandmother. Alyce Jones and Dianne MacKenzie..

I am so sorry to hear about Mrs. Abney's passing. She was such a special person to me and my family. She taught me many things as I grew up and as a parent and grandparent I have tried to instill those qualities in my family. Even though we didn't see each other often we always kept in touch with letters and Christmas cards. I will miss her grately. I know she is in Heaven dancing a jig with Mr. Abney. May God wrap you in his loving arms and give you strength and peace during this difficult time. My prayers are with you.
