Mindi we were just getting to know each other
One thing I know you made my brother happy
Thank you for that. I know you are dancing with the Lord. Tell our Mom and brother Jerry hi and Love and miss them. You too girl. Gonna miss you. Love you
I was lucky enough to grow up around miss Mindi. After I found out my at the time boyfriend committed, I went up to her Sunday school class that next morning and she noticed I was upset. She stopped me after class and said "are you ok baby?" I started to cry and said no ma'am not really. Then she gave me a big ol hug. And in those few seconds I forgot how angry and sad and awful I felt, and just felt this unbelievable love. That's one of my favourite memories of her. I know she's doing what she loved to do most up in heaven right now, and that's praising god, and maybe cooking for jesus ;)
Mindi’s faith in choosing Christ brings me strength. Her choice to chose Jesus instead of more needles, and chemo, declares her trust Jesus. Thank you Mindi for your witness and love.
My love and prayers go out to her family. May they find comfort I God’s hands through this trying time.
I met Mindi when we returned to OAG back in early 2006. It didn't take long to know she was a woman of passion for her Savior, Jesus Christ, and that she was very dedicated to her church family. Neither did it take long to realize that she would shout it from the rooftops, without reservation (WORD!) Mindi and I were both in the choir and when we realized that both of us could do better on the tenor part, that's where we ended up, in the tenor section, standing side by side. We had fun, learned a lot about each other, she knew special things about me and was always there with a comforting word when I was sad, or a kleenex, or just a reassuring touch. She loved her girl, Liesel, and would be so excited and bubbling over to know she would soon get to see her. She made EVERY outfit that I wore in the choir performances, and I had several over the years. She never wanted money for her work, it was her mission. However, I would tell her, okay, if not for you I must contribute to, YOUR MISSION, because that is MY MISSION. That, she would accept. And she had a little bakery in her house. She made the absolute best, most yummy, cheesecakes. ALL kinds of flavors! Cookies, cakes, soups, turkey, biscuits and gravy, and on and on. She loved the youth and did so much for them. I don't think her Sunday school class ever went home hungry on Sundays. Always breakfast or some type of sweets, etc. They are going to miss, Ms. Mindi. I could go on and on about this woman, I loved her for who she was, and she loved me the same. She called me friend, and that meant everything to me, because I knew she meant it. I thank God he let her find, and marry the love of her life, Peter Hawblitz. They got to spend two beautiful years together. God knows I will miss this never shy, always outspoken, caring, precious lady. RIP dear Mindi, you have fought the fight, and won. Victory is yours now, and I WILL see you soon.
Mindi was a wonderful person. Always willing to help someone, never missed a chance to share her delicious cooking with people. She made several cheesecakes for my son thru the years. I’ll always remember how pretty and happy she was at her wedding. I’m so glad she and Peter found one another. I just wish they could’ve had a lifetime together.
