Bertha Faye (Myers) Alwine

Bertha Faye Alwine (1935-2022)

Jesus welcomed mom home on the evening of Thursday, October 13, 2022.

She was born on December 10, 1935. She was the last surviving daughter of Harry and Mildred Myers.

Mom endured many hardships in life while maintaining her strong faith in Jesus, raising four children, 8 grandchildren and 19 great grandchildren to know the Lord.

Mom’s greatest joy was her family and was more concerned with putting them and their needs above her own.

She was blessed and her greatest joy was raising her four children. She had a love for flower gardening with roses being her favorite. She always wanted to please and do special things for us like making our favorite dinner for birthdays and making her fabulous cinnamon rolls or favorite pie.

These are some of our most cherished memories but most important was her prayers and faith she shared with us. Through all the years, we knew she prayed over us continually-no matter what our needs.

Her selfless love touched many people through the years as evidenced by the many friends that wanted to remain close to her and showed their goodness and love to her.

She will be missed greatly. Please join us in remembering mom, Wednesday, October 19, 2022 from 4pm to 7pm at Flowers-Leedy Funeral Home, 105 West Third Street, Peru, Indiana. Visitation will also be held from 1pm to 2pm, prior to the service, on Thursday, October 20, 2022. The funeral service will begin at 2pm with Pastor Eric Alwine officiating. Burial will take place at Ever-Rest Memorial Park Cemetery.

Memorial contributions may be given to the Living Stone Church, PO Box 179, Rossville, Indiana, 46065.

We will love you Mom forever and ever,

Katrina and Kenn, James A. and Danae, Eric and Kathy, and Tim and Debbie
