To Veronica and family,
I was so sad to hear about the passing of our family member my dearest cousin Deaconess Sarah W. Harris. I will always remember her as I was growing up playing and singing God's old hymns of the church. I will also miss her at the family reunion and our family traveling. May God richly bless and keep you in the days and weeks ahead.
Love,
Deaconess Mary E. Edwards
