Lynn and Family,

Please accept our deepest sympathies with Sally’s passing. I will always remember her trying to keep Lynn and Grandpa from cheating at Euchre up at the lake.

I will never understand how anyone so sweet could live a life with so much pain. I have so many wonderful memories of Lynn and Sal and Grant and I when we met in the 50's when the guys were in the AF. I know that Sal is at peace with her Lord and I will try to let that thought comfort me as well as the entire Marcy family. I am sending my love and prayers. Janet Eldred
