Nora Dean Kilgore

My dearest Mother,

Words can never convey how my heart is broken over your passing. I miss you so much. I did not know one could cry, as much as I have this past week. I find myself thinking of something I need to let you know, picking up my cell phone dialing your cell number, only to find that your number is ringing in my bedroom. It is something I did on a daily basis, even when you were in ICU. I'm sure I'll find myself doing this for awhile. Mother, you were the greatest mother and a great friend, too. Your love, kindness, and generosity will always be greatly appreciated. You were such a lady, too. I learned so many valuable things from you: do not let bitterness and unforgiveness remain in my heart; show kindness and love to all; be faithful and carry out all promises made. Thank you, for your love, mercy and patience toward me. I love you, Mother and miss you very much. One day we will be reunited.

Your mom was always so sweet. She was considered a part of our family and we will miss her. Our prayers and thoughts are with her family. We love you Arlene, Charlene and your families

Ms. Kilgore, You always had a ready smile, encouraging words of wisdom and a spirit that was so full of God our Father. This world will truly be at a loss without you, but God will truly be blessed with you, with your love of him and your love of life.

Peace Be With You,

Donna Stegall

Arlene and Charlene,
I will always have fond memories of Mrs. Kilgore. She was always a joyful presence at St. Louis and a beautiful faithful servant ! How Blessed we were to witness her loving devotion to the church and to those around her. God Bless you all and may you find peace in your memories of her in your life and in the lives of many others. Pam Miller Hargraves

We will never forget you, thank you for the blessing of knowing you! For all the goodies over the years, for staining the wood in our kitchen, for all your letters to Steve during Iraqi war. Most of all for the legacy of a prayer life that you taught us with the Holy Spirit. Kick off your shoes, kick up your feet and unfold your wings!

I have fond memories of Mrs. Kilgore throughout my years growing up and her working with my dad at Keating's. She was a very nice lady and made the best pineapple upside down cake... she will be missed by many. My prayers are for the family at this time.

Prayers for peace for the family of a very special lady. When I was young, we lived in the same neighborhood and then I really got to know her at St. Louis Catholic Church. She trained me as a lector; she was the teacher in the baptism class when I was preparing for Amy's baptism, and I taught with her in the religious education classes. I learned many things from her about our faith. She took the time to write a special note to me over Christmas just this last year - and it meant a lot to get such a glowing message from a special lady. I agree, she always had a hug and a smile. I know there is a great celebration in heaven welcoming her into the kingdom. Peace be with you Nora Dean.
