To The Families:
What moves through us is a silence, a quiet sadness, a longing for one more day, one more word, one more touch, you may not understand why Mrs. Green left this earth so soon, or why she left before you were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, you begin to remember not just that she died, but that she lived. And that her life gave you memories too beautiful to forget.

"Talked to God this morning, and asked Him to give you peace and hope and strength in your time of loss and sadness. With deepest sympathy."
