SORRY TO HEAR OF YOUR MOTHERS PASSING.OUR PRAYERS GO OUT TO YOU AND YOUR FAMILY.

Dear Dr. and Mrs. Feaster,
I was saddened to hear of the loss of Dr. Feaster's mother. He always spoke very highly of her and you could tell that there was a tremendous amount of love between the two of them. If there is any truth that you can judge a parent by the actions of their offspring, then she must been one hell of a mother. Carla also would like to express her deepest sympathies. Our hearts and prayers will be with you both.

Dear Marshall and Jane, we are so sorry for your loss. I remember meeting Ruth many years ago. Even in her early eightys , she demonstrated a sharp wit and wonderful southern grace. You are in our prayers. Anne and John
