Jimmy, Darlene, Ray, and Tammy and all the little ones,
So many times, we have thought about you over the past weeks. We cannot imagine the emptiness and grief that you feel! But, we have tried to think of THE one word that best describes Linda Lee. LOVE is the word. She gave love unconditionally and you always knew that she loved you. Yes, love is the word to describe Linda. And the good thing is that love is what she taught all of us! As we approach this Christmas season, we will let Linda guide us to show acts of love. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers and will be each and every day. We love you. Rufus and Debbie Thomas

Brode family, my sincere condolences goes out to you and your family. Although God is not the cause of death, he has promised to fix it. May he provide you and your family with a measure of comfort and peace until that promise is fulfilled.
