Dear Phyllis,
Was so sorry to hear about Steve, and wanted to get to the funeral home so bad. I know you got my message I sent by Tom and Pat Lacy. Having to take care of Daddy 24/7 with his Alzheimer's is a job and hard to go anywhere anymore.
I know you had a ton of people there and each one loving and appreciating yall as much as I do.
I hope you will hold on to Isaiah 41:10 as it will help you thru this.
I miss seeing you and all my friends from Grove. If there is anything I can do for you please let me know as I will try my best.
Daddy and I say prayers together every night and we have been praying for you and family. I know George and Wanda being here was a great help to you. May God bless you shug and know we will keep praying.
Love, Dana
