Dear John and Helen: I hope you know how much I loved your mother. Way back 44 or 45 years ago she was just the most welcoming person in the whole world to me entering my new family. She was always that way. I have a strange form of pneumonia (not a complaint) so I will not be able to see you at the services (Gerry will be there). But I do know that I have Josephine praying for my recovery because surely she is in the hands of Jesus Christ this very moment. Buddy Cash. Peace of Christ with you and Helen and family,
