Margaret, It seems such a long time ago that we enjoyed that Easter weekend with you and Burton and then having to leave early Sunday morning due a snowfall. God has brought us all many joys to outshine the sorrows, especially the pain of losing a loved one, yet we know that it is for a short season and we know without a doubt we will see them again. For such a time as this we can rest in the graciousness of our God enveloped in the precious memories that we have. Please extend our heartfelt condolences to Heidi, Cyndy, Robin, Linda and their families. Wishing we could be there for you.
Love; Dave, Priscilla, Rebecca, Kathryn and families.
