My sweet Sofie. Saying goodbye to you will be very hard. The wonderful times we had will always be cherished. There was lots of laughter and teasing and old stories that we loved to share. Some of those stories were with Willie and me golfing. Sophie and Jeff fishing, and her being very competitive on the number of fish that was caught.

May GOD embrace you in his arms and show you how very much HE has always loved and cared for you.

Save a place at the table for the rest of us.

I love you so much.
