Our deepest sympathy to Aunt Priscilla's family. She was a very special and caring lady and will be missed by many. Lovely picture and write up of your Mom. I did correspond with her after my Mom (Ursula) passed away and she was always positive and upbeat. She will always be in your heart and be in heaven watching over everyone. Love and Prayers to all of you.

Grandma Haas was such an amazing woman who lived such a fascinating life! I always enjoyed hearing her stories. I am so thankful that I have many scarves and other knitted things to remember her by. I will be keeping everyone in my thoughts and prayers.

Since knowing Grandma Haas a light house looks very different to me now. Her amazing stories of her growing up in the wilds of Canada always intrigued and entertained me. She truly has had an adventurous life. Living in isolated area’s with few people and no travel access times of the year. Growing up in many places as a child with different guardians, running a large division of a factory and overseeing great numbers of staff members. She still drove later in life and worked hard to help those in need. She always looked out for those who had little. Working in thrift stores and making clothing for the under privileged. You are an amazing woman Grandma Haas we miss you already.

We were so sorry to learn of Priscilla’s passing. We first met in Eastern Star years ago. Both she & Al were such sweet, kind people. Each year at Christmas we get out the hand knit nativity set she made us. She told us the wood stable was one of the last Al made before his death. This was such a precious gift we will always treasure. Rest In Peace.

Grandma is an amazing woman who did not have an easy life growing up and then raising three kids on her own for a period of time. I never heard her complain though. She only talked about the good times/experiences she had. I've always been amazed at her memory, remembering details about her life as far back as grade school. I will miss her very much. She was always so entertaining when she visited us in Texas. I can just imagine when she first met Jesus she said "How do?"

My thoughts and condolences go out to all of Aunt Priscilla's family and friends. Aunt Priscilla smiled often and left us with many enjoyable memories to hold on to. I enjoyed her visits to Ohio, and the many roads trips I've shared with her, heading up to Killarney. She taught Kinsey to knit like a pro, who is now re-teaching me the skill. And the lighthouse she gave me illuminates nightly at our home. One of my favorite memories, however, while on a road trip with her, was when she told me she only drives her age. She was 80 at the time! (And word on the street is ... she had a set of car keys well into her 90's! ) Glad you're safe, Aunt Priscilla. You'll be missed!

Our sincere condolences to Aunt Pricilla's family. It was very special to have Aunt Pricilla a part of my life for so many years. I always admired her, for her presence of mind, her caring, and her sense of humour. I thought I would share a photo of Aunt Pricilla with her sisters in about 2007. And, on Easter Sunday she rose to heaven..... She left us with a lifetime of memories. ?

Much of my experience of Aunt Priscilla has come through Mom and her siblings; memories, stories and times they spent together at the Solomon Sister Reunions and visits to Killarney. In that, I knew Aunt Priscilla as a person with deep affection and love of family. She often joined large family celebrations in Canada where she rekindled ties with many nieces and nephews who loved her dearly. I will always be grateful for her presence in my life. Love, prayers and deepest sympathy to my cousins and their families.

My older sister, Priscilla, was not only a very talented sewer and knitter, but also an inspiration to me. I will miss her uplifting and optimistic personality. My deepest sympathy goes out to her children.

Aunt Priscilla was a woman of deep faith, courage, creativity, wisdom and compassion. She was so caring toward me when I was in Chicago, visiting me and inviting me to her home. She loved fun. She was a great entertainer with her sisters Agnes and Mary whenever our families got together. They created and performed skits that kept everyone laughing. She was always eager to try something new. And she had a wonderful smile that she shared easily and readily. Aunt Priscilla, you take our love with you to your new home in heaven. Love and prayers, Priscilla

Our condolences to family & friends. We first met Priscilla at our church, she was so talented in many crafts & contributed her skills making prayer shawls for her church Trinity Presbyterian Church Fort Wayne. Her presence has been missed during the Covid-19 crisis which has limited many from in person church & social activities. God Bless ✝️?

My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to her entire family. with much Love Patsy (Patricia) and Honey (pup)
