Dearest Peggy, Kevin Sr., K.C. (Kevin Jr.), Molly, and family...I extend my deepest and sincerest sympathy to you all in the loss of Mr. Husch. His family is a wonderful legacy to all of us who so wished we could have known him. I am so thankful to God that Great-Grandfather was able to see Elliana's pictures. I know that he will watch over her from Heaven and all of his family. You are all in my continued prayers for comfort and peace at this time. God's Peace and Love to you all!! Linda Hamblen, aunt of Laura, K.C., and Elliana McNicholas.
