Meredith Kathryn Berryhill Fitzgerald

My Prayers and thoughts are with you Kathy and all of your family. Your Mom was very accomplished and had a positive influence on so many lives, what a blessing. May your memories bring you comfort and joy, may your faith bring you peace and knowledge that you will see her again.
God Bless

Because of Mrs. Fitzgerald's encouragement and influence, I became a kindergarten teacher and an early childhood specialist. She was there for me from the time before I entered Lamar University until after I graduated with certifications in Kindergarten and Early Childhood. She even attended my wedding shower. She made teaching exciting. I send my deepest sympathy to her children and Mr. Fitzgerald and want them to know how very much she was loved by her students. She always made me feel very special and I will miss her very much. With much affection,
Terry Smith Bowers

Mr. Fitzgerald and family,
I wanted to express my condolences to you all. I was out of town with family when I received the news of Mrs. Fitzgerald's passing. I know that you will miss this wonderful wife, mother and most of all friend in your life. Nancy, I wish I could have been here for you and your dad. If there is anything I can help you with, please do not hestitate to call.
In Christian Love, Mary Ellen

Meredith was a bright light in the Lamar book club.
We will all miss her greatly.

It was a true joy having the opportunity to know this fine lady. She will be missed by all. One of her greatest legacies is the awesome family that she left behind.

Meredith was such a fixture in her family and became a fixture in ours. There will be a hole in family gatherings now. Our families became one and now our matriarch has became an angel in heaven. She will surely be missed.

Thoughts and prayers for all of her family.

Bob and Paula

Meredith was a friend and sometimes shopping companion in places our RV travels took us. She most often looked for something for someone else. We'll miss her smile and that unflagging interest in so many things.

To the Fitzgerald family, our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Love,
Michael, Jan & Maddie Wilson

It is hard to sum up in a few words what you meant to so many people. And I can’t…so why even try. How you cared for us and we for you! All of us who know and love you will remember your tenacity of character and the love you showed to your family and your many friends. You have truly left a mark on the community where you lived and the many people you came in contact with. I will always hear these words that you have said many many times, “If I only had a telescope that would let me look in on my children or grandchildren (whom you would list by name), so I would know that they are doing O.K.!”
I wish I had a camera that could capture an image of everyone you have influenced. The camera would be as big as the universe and the people as many as the stars in the night sky! I wish I could one more time turn your camera around and click an image that you would find later when you developed the film or looked at your digital images. I wish I had an extra minute to see your smile, hear your laugh, listen to you tell Bill to get all of us guys out of the train room, or play a game using your rules-(smile)! While you are not a native Texan, you are truly a “Yellow Rose of Texas”!
Meredith Fitzgerald: Wife, Mother, Grandmother, Great Grandmother, teacher, mentor, friend…Somewhere in the universe last Saturday a new star was born to symbolize all that you are and what you meant to us. A star to shine bright to inspire all of us you leave behind to remind us to be the best we can be! I will miss you very much! But I will always have my memories of you to reflect back upon…memories of family…..memories of love.

To the Fitzgerald family, the Baltz family and I share in your loss!

Dear Kathy:
I'm so sorry about your loss. I have so many fond childhood memories of your Mom and Dad. She was a wonderful lady and you are an amazing daughter. I am praying for you and your family.
