Dear Pam, Bruce and Family:

Ray Marshall has always been a part of my life from my beginning. He and my dad, Carroll, were the "Best Man" in each other's wedding in the 50's. We have shared major events in each other's life, including my first wedding, holidays, Ray & Jane's fiftieth anniversary, and my father's funeral. I, and the rest of my family, will sorely miss Ray. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Bruce and Pat, I'm so sorry for your loss. Remember that he's in a much better place and has a home like no other. He is in God's hands now. He will be an angel watching over the both of you. We will keep you in our prayers.

Monty and I spent an evening together with his future wife Nona and my friend Pat at Keswick Estates. Monty was someone whom I immediately liked and took too. We talked for hours and Monty, I learned later, was not known for talking alot and we had just met. Monty made me feel like I had known him for years. I felt a bond of friendship that could have lasted for a long long time. It's not very often that you meet someone and immediately feel like you have known them all your life. I liked him. I will miss him. What a brave and loving Virginia Gentleman. Monty is in a better place and will not be forgotten. Monty is now "home" with the angels.
