Cindi
I remember your parents volunteering at Old Trail School. They were both so very very nice and kind to anyone they came in contact with . They are together again in God's house. May God keep you and your families safe until you see them again.

Dear Cindy and Jim & Family:
We were so saddened to hear of the loss of our dearest neighbor and friend Ginny while we are in Florida for the winter. It will be hard to know that when we return home to our condo, she will not be next door. Ginny and Frank were the best neighbors and such great friends. Anyone and everyone who ever came in contact with either of them were blessed to know them. You were blessed most of all to be their relatives and knew them for so many lovely years. We were only blessed to know them when they came to Ohio, but we will never forget their pleasant attitudes, their friendliness and their love for their family and friends. Ginny...you will be greatly missed, sweet friend. Be at peace with your beloved Frank, singing before God in paradise.

I had Mrs. Sencindiver as a teacher at Crestview Elementary. She was a GREAT teacher. Of course, that was many years ago. I have very fond memories of her. May you be at peace knowing she is with our Father!

No bond is as great as that between a parent and child. My deepest condolences are with you as you grieve.

I was so sorry to learn of the loss of Ginny. She and Frank were such good friends to my parents, Katherine and Pierce Lumpkin, and they will be missed very much. Ginny and I were corresponding through Christmas cards and she was always so interested in my family. I will miss that card next Christmas. My prayers are with all of you. Margaret Lumpkin Forrester

Mrs. Sencindiver was my 1st grade teacher 36 years ago. I thought of her many times over the years. She was a wonderful teacher and helped to mold me into the person I am today. I will be thinking of your family.
