I was so saddened to hear of Peggyann moving from this life as we know it to a beautiful place God has prepared for us all. I was always told if we really knew how heaven is we would not want to stay here another minute. Bud and I love you George and pray for you all. So sorry for your loss. One day we will be reunited with all our loved ones.
