My sister,( Sharon Anne Stresing Brown, my brother, Larry Stresing, and I (Billie Gaye Stresing Prather) would like to extend our heartfelt condolences to the family of Richard Sage who is our mom's the late (June Fowler Stresing Hody) cousin and our second cousin. Although we hardly were close due to our age differences and life in general, Aunt Jessie and Uncle Orrie was an important part of our younger years and Richard in his youth was too. Bless you and bless him as he journeys to a peaceful and better place with our heavenly father.
