To Janette and The Beasley Family:
My Condolences and Prayers are with you and your family at this time of sorrow. I was reading the Progress Index and I saw that your Mother had passed away. In 2005 I lost my Daddy and in 2008 I lost my Mother and those were very trying times and I still miss them, but know that our loved ones are not lost, they are resting with God and waiting to see us again. Your classmate of 1973, Hazel Coleman
