Obituary for Erna Lydia Helene Bristow
Our beloved Momma went to be with our Lord on April 4, after a courageous battle with cancer. She was the most loving, selfless person you would ever know. She always exuded beauty and happiness in every aspect of life. She touched the hearts of so many people, sharing her love and the word of God. Most importantly, she found peace in knowing the lord, whom guided her throughout life. We were all blessed to have her in our lives. Momma, rest in peace; you are in our hearts forever. “When tomorrow starts without me, don’t think we’re far apart, for every time you think of me, I’m right there in your heart”. Momma was preceded in death by her husband, Forest “Dutch” Bristow, her parents Hildegard and Hans Seemann and three brothers Erwin, Walter and Heintz Seemann. She is survived by her sister Helly Seemann of Vienna, Austria. Her sons Tony (Marnie) Lentino, Peter (Vanessa) Lentino and daughters Monica (Rob) Love and Sharon Gaumont. Grandchildren Kristie, Vincent, Britney and Lani Lentino, Stephanie Ornelas, Justin Stell, Carmen Carriere, Aaron Defelice and Cole Jacobson. Her beloved great grandchildren, Mackenzie Ornelas, Nicholas, Adrian and Brandon Carriere. “And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away”. Rev. 21:4 The family would like to thank Northbay Hospice for all the loving care they provided. Also Pastor Leroy Gainy and Pastor Wyatt Duncan as well as the First Baptist Church for their loving support. Funeral services will be on Saturday, April 11 at 2:00pm at First Baptist Church in Vacaville. We ask in lieu of flowers donations be made to Northbay Hospice.
