Dear Gwen, thank you for being our spiritual mentor and for showing us the joy of Christian life and what it means to be a faithful servant of God. You are a true woman of faith. You poured out all your love for brothers and sisters and you offered nothing but the best to the Lord, and by doing so you taught us by example the best Sunday School lesson. Your selfless dedication, obedience, resilience and steadfast trust in the Lord have become an inspiration to all of us. We are going to miss you dearly, but trust that you are now happily with the Lord, blessed by eternal joy and peace in His presence. You will forever be in our fond memories. Aloha Oe, until we meet again! (Patrick)
Gwen, you have been one of the best cheerleaders in my life. Thank you for all your support, questions, thoughtfulness and being who you are. Even I cannot see you as often and before, I feel that your voice is around me. I am happy for your new body in Christ. How wonderful! I am so excited for you! (Hannah)
