Dear Friends, I am sorry to hear of the death of Phyllis. She was a very kind and gentile lady. I always saw her with a pleasant smile and was so nice to me. She will be missed, but I know her memory will last for an eternity. May you be comforted by God during this time of separation. I will not be able to be with you, but I am sending my love and sympathy.
