May god bless the Hines family during this hard time. I was so shocked to hear that God has called Valerie home and it saddened my heart. Me and Miss Val started at Comcast together and she has such a sweet soul. She has always been a shoulder to lean on and willing to extended a helping hand or a listening ear. She was very fond of her son and granchildren. She will be dearly missed. My Condolences go out to her family especially her son and father. Your are in my prayers. *~ Mia~*

My heartfelt and deepest condolences to Valarie's family. Valarie and I bonded as a result of each of us losing a baby in our families to SIDS... my daughter would have graduated High School this past June from Central. I would like to offer my support to the family. I can not attend the service due to work scheduling. However I would like to make some kind of donation and would like the family to reach out to me via email to let me know what their wishes are. I can send a donation to the church or something directly to the family... or flowers for the service. Valarie sat near me at work and she was the kindest of souls one could possibly meet. She was so sweet and so good with our customers. Her spirituality showed in all that she did. I will miss her very much. Valarie was in my eyes an angel on earth... the kind of Christian woman I would like to be. Again my heart and prayers go out to the family.... and I hope I will be contacted as to what I can do in support. I will light a special candle today and tomorrow at home as my own tribute to Valarie since I can not attend the services Saturday. Blessings and Prayers, Aimee Dutkiewicz

My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. I have fond memories of Val while spending time at "Nonnie's" house with her as a little girl. As I grew into a teenager, my sister Dionne and I had the priviledge of being Antony's babysitters. Val, you will be missed and I know that you join a host of special Guardian angels. To Anthony, stay strong honey, we love you.
