Cindy, Carlyle and Family,

I extend to you my deepest condolences for the loss of your Mother. Her passing will not only leave a void in your lives, but in the hearts of everyone who knew her. I will always cherish the times spent with her. Your mother was a genuinely kind person and such a beautiful lady inside and out. I will always chuckle at her calling me “Flecia”.

May God bless you, keep you, and comfort you in your time of bereavement.
