Ann - I am very sorry to hear of the passing of Mr. Lancaster. As a 17 year old working at the Post Office on Aberdeen Road, he was my supervisor. I will never forget his voice or words of wisdom. I pray God gives you the peace and comfort during this trying time.

Ann - I'm so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. I don't know if you remember this but Chris worked for your Dad at the post office when he was in high school. He was always so fond of your Dad. I pray that God will bless you with the peace and comfort that only He can give at this time. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers.

Ann...years have passed, but you are still a dear friend. I remember spending many nights at your house and your mother and father were just so wonderful. You are in my thoughts and prayers now and in the days to come. I know God will hold your in His hands and be with you. My deepest sympathies during this time.
