Aunt Becky, even though I don't get to see you like I did when I was a little girl, I often think of you and Uncle Naaman. You are both special people. I love you. Your loss is unmeasurable. I know that you find comfort knowing that he is in Heaven having a family reunion with Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Glenn, Uncle Clyde, Uncle Vance, Aunt Sara, Aunt Jo, Aunt Sarah Mae, Aunt Liz, Mike, Judy, Aunt Frances, Grady, and Leonard, and others in our family who have passed. I have always said if you could put all of our kin people together for a photo, it would take a football stadium to hold them all. What a blessing!!! If you get to Heaven before I do, give him a big hug for me. He was a good man. You are in my prayers. I love you. Barbara Roberts Foster.

Naaman was a special person and he will be missed. Naaman is in Heaven now and not in need of our prayers, but his family needs lots of prayer because they have lost someone special. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
I was so sad to hear of your loss. Thank God we have the peace to know we will see him again someday.
With Love and Sympathy,
