Doc, this last year has been very hard on you to watch your wonderful wife slip away. I too have felt the pain .
I will pray for you to have peace and comfort to know she is no longer in pain.I will always remember what a wonderful friend she was to me and all the years we had fun together.
Love you Ferne.
Love, Shirley
Doc,
We are sorry to learn of the loss of your lovely Ferne. We met through the EVSC, and always enjoyed being in the company of such a great couple.
Regards, Raymond and Teresa Clark
Doc,
My heart goes out to you. You & Ferne were true friends & I will always treasure that friendship. May the good memories sustain you during this difficult time.
Doc,
We are so sorry to hear that you have lost the love of your life. She was such a joy to be around. Ferne was always there to receive her hug from us and her smile just lit up the room. When I first came to Portsmouth Moose and was trying to learn how to line dance you two became my fast friends and invited me to some of your favorite places to dance. You will never know how much that meant to me. Ferne will always be in my memories and heart and will always be my friend. You were very blessed to have found her and make her your life. Prayers for you for peace in your heart. Blessings for her as she has reached her ultimate goal and is now whole again. Love goes out to you Doc. Thank you both for being a part of my life.

There's so much that should be said at this time but words seem adequate. Just hope you know you're being thought about and cared about. Ferne was a special person, she will remain in your heart forever and ours too.

Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
We are sad to hear of Ferne's passing. She was our QAR inspector and friend for many years. Ferne was excellent at her job, always helpful and patient. We so enjoyed sharing vacation and plant stories with her when our meetings were completed. Our prayers are with her family and friends as they grieve her passing.

Ferne will always be in my heart and I will never forget the good times we shared.
Doc,
I'm so sorry to hear of Ferns passing. She's a wonderful person and exceptional friend. She made me the person I am today and I am going to miss her severely. There is no one in the world who is as nice and as kind as she. I will always miss her. I'm sorry for your loss.
Much Love
Doc, I can't find any words to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. Ferne was a wonderful person and I feel honored to have had her for a friend. We did have some good times line dancing and I will always remember our good times together.
Ferne is now taking care of all the animals in heaven.
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
DOC, WE JUST HEARD ABOUT FERNES' PASSING TODAY, AND WE ARE SO SORRY, AND WANT YOU TO KNOW YOU ARE IN OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS. IF THERE IS ANYTHING WE CAN DO, PLEASE GIVE US A CALL. WE WILL MISS HER SO MUCH AT THE MOOSE. DOCK AND JUDY DENSON
Ferne will be truly missed. She always had a smile on her face and a cheery disposition. If she could help you...she would. Rest in peace Ferne.
Carter and I will truly miss this sweet angel of a woman. Her gorgeous personality, wit, and shining smile will for ever live in our hearts.
Dear Doc, Kevin and I are so very sorry to hear of Ferne's passing. We feel terrible that we lost touch with you both and we were unaware of her illness. Please know our thoughts and prayers are with you now. We hope that memories of happier times will comfort you. Let us know if we can help in any way. Love, Valerie and Kevin
I worked with Ferne for a number of years at DCMA. Ferne had the kindest soul and most generous heart of anyone you will ever meet. It saddens me that she is no longer with us, but I know she is in a much better place. May GOD bless her entire family.
I came to work at DCMA Southern VA in 1997 working with Ferne. She was so helpful, kind and always willing to give advise & assist me with getting settled into the area. She was a true inspiration and will be missed. My thoughts, prayers and sincere condolences to her family during this time.
There are no words that express the goodness of Ferne. She loved the animals who could not take care of themselves. She held the hand of her friends who were going through a bad time. She can not be replaced but I know she is looking after us.
I met Ferne more than 30 yrs ago through my husband, Larry, while we were dating. Ferne was such a wonderful and upbeat friend with an infectious smile. Because of Ferne, we joined the Eastern Virginia Ski Club and shared many fun trips together. I will never forget all the great times we had together having dinner, sharing ski condos, or whatever. Unfortunately, I did lose touch with her until recently but, I never forgot her. May she forever R.I.P. Love you, Ferne!
Ferne was a beautiful person inside and out. I used to work with her at DCMA and she would make my day when she walked into my cubicle. She always had a smile from ear to ear and we would sit and share stories and laugh. She also tried to teach me to line dance and that was something she also laughed about. I just couldn't get my hips to move and she would come up on stage and walk me through the moves............can't imagine this world without her beautiful smile!
Dear Doc,
I am truly sorry for your loss, Ferne was wonderfual and I really appreciate the kindness you showed Leanza. We were all were blessed to have known her.
Peace of mind is a call away. We’re here when you need us most.
Doc: Our thoughts and prayers are with you. There are a few people that I will always remember, and Ferne is one. The two of you were a big part of my time at the police dept. and made it so much more fun. I will always remember the nights at the dance hall with the lemon drops..and the fire in your backyard. Ferne was a wonderful lady and earned her way to heaven.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you Doc. We had so much fun with the CCPC floats and the parades. Ferne was a light and always had made things fun when she was around at the Car Wash Fundraisers and the others we used to put on together. We were always laughing and having a good time and this is what will be with me always. She and I both loved the animals and she was a true advocate for them. Please know we are thinking about you and our hearts are with you. Love Susan and Michael
Doc, My prayers are with you at this time of loss.
Love, Sue B. Boll
Doc,
Ferne was so special and giving. I always looked up to her and loved spending time with you and her. I will never forget all the good times we had and most importantly, everything you two did for me. I will always love you two. We lost an angel this week - my heart is breaking. Love Suzy suzanne.spence@verizon.net
Doc,
My family and I are praying for you. Please take comfort in knowing that Ferne was a wonderful friend and co-worker, who will truly be missed.
It is with a heavy heart that I learned of Ferne's passing. I will never forget her kindness towards me when I became a member of the Chesapeake Crime Prevention Council. She was such a giving person and was always helping others and definitely made this world a better place. We will miss you Ferne!
We send our condolences on the passing of Ferne.She was a special person who was full of life and ready to help others. Her enthusiasm was contagious. She encouraged people in a friendly and kind way. We will miss her smiles which were always prevalent.
Doc, my heart is breaking for you. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
Doc,
Jeff and I send our thoughts and prayers to you at this difficult time. I will treasure the many memories. How blessed I was to have her in my life.
Hi Doc,
Although my heart breaks for you and all of us who love Ferne, I know this is just temporary. We will all be with her again some day. While we wait to join her, know that Jesus has her in the palm of His hand, loving her. She's whole and completely healed and enjoying life, waiting for us! Dancing without us! She's enjoying peace! Be at peace Doc and know she is in the loving presents of our Lord! One of the last things she said to me was, "I'm going to sit with Jesus!" And she is! Love ya', Aud
Doc,
I'll never forget Ferne's amazing smile and infectious laugh. Her love for animals was another trait we share. She was one of a kind and so are you. I am so sorry for your loss. Take care, Cindy
I was so saddened to learn of Ferne's passing. She always had a smile on her face even as we bored her with our talk about plants. I know she's in a better place
