Ashley, I am so sorry to hear about your Grandma Gutwein. I always loved to hear your stories about her and her rocking chair! I wanted you know that I'm praying for you and your family but will be out of town for spring break and won't be able to attend the service. Please know that I'll be thinking of you.
