Carolyn, Larry and other Family Members:
It saddens my heart that Mrs. Price has passed away. Although I did not know her personally, it seems as though I did because my mom (Lucille) always had sweet and great things to say about her in our conversations. Just know that I am with you in spirit and that my prayers will reach you many miles
away. May the Lord keep you and strenghten you day by day.
