Not sure what to say?





I am vexed that I did not find out about your mom until tonight (Joyce Sharp told me) I would have been at the service and am so sorry I was not.
It is a natural occurrence, but sad nevertheless because it marks the end of an era and a life without a key member in it. Sad for you and happy for her. Deanne Clark
