Dear Margaret and Julia,
My heart is broken over the loss of your brother. We are family and having had the privilege to be a Graniteville employee for many years, I not only knew the Kneece's but have grown as close over these many years as any family. Herbert, as well as you will be in my prayers and I ask our good Lord to watch over his soul for all eternity.
Love,
