I wish that I could be there with you in this time of sorrow, but unfortunate circumstances prevent that. My thoughts and prayers are with you Dolores and your children. Your daughter in law Nancy Nast

The thread of family is thin, and the loss of family bears the hearts from afar with sorrow and compassion. Uncle John, a name bore in our memories, but a face we cannot recall.

Psalms 103:15-19 in part; As for man, his days are like grass, he flourishes like a flower of the field: the wind blows over it and it is gone, and its place remembers it no more.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. May you find peace in the memories you have been blessed with. Much love, the children and families of Shirley Kephart 1934-2008.
